Motivation

Ability to change the default short preview text ('AaGg') comes in handy when there is no readily available information on what subsets are supported by this or that font. By changing the text to something that contains both desired extended characters and similar characters from Basic Latin, e.g. 'NŅgģ', I can immediately spot which fonts support the subset needed:
NNgg
(the first two are OK, the third is not)

Patch coming.

Patch attached.

It also reworks fontyourface_ui_settings_form_submit() a bit - as only one button can be clicked at a time, we can safely do return; when the button has been identified and required processing done.
