Summary: CreateFont 'italic' keyword is working improperly

Initial Comment:
dc.CreateFont creates an italic font when 'italic' key is just specified, despite its value, e.g.
dc.CreateFont({'name': 'My font', ..., 'italic': False})
creates italicized font and
dc.CreateFont({'name': 'My font', ...})
creates regular one.

Possible reason:
/pywin32/Pythonwin/win32util.cpp rev. 1.12
DictToLogFont function: 

  317 
  318   v = PyDict_GetItemString (font_props, (char *)szFontItalic);
  319   if (v != NULL && v != Py_None)
  320 	pLF->lfItalic = TRUE;
  321 

Seems to ignore the value stored in dict parameter.
