   * <Title>
   *    Cache Sub-System
   *
   * <Abstract>
   *    How to cache face, size, and glyph data with FreeType 2.
   *
   * <Description>
   *   This section describes the FreeType 2 cache sub-system, which is used
   *   to limit the number of concurrently opened @FT_Face and @FT_Size
   *   objects, as well as caching information like character maps and glyph
   *   images while limiting their maximum memory usage.
   *
   *   Note that all types and functions begin with the `FTC_' prefix.
   *
   *   The cache is highly portable and thus doesn't know anything about the
   *   fonts installed on your system, or how to access them.  This implies
   *   the following scheme:
   *
   *   First, available or installed font faces are uniquely identified by
   *   @FTC_FaceID values, provided to the cache by the client.  Note that
   *   the cache only stores and compares these values, and doesn't try to
   *   interpret them in any way.
   *
   *   Second, the cache calls, only when needed, a client-provided function
   *   to convert a @FTC_FaceID into a new @FT_Face object.  The latter is
   *   then completely managed by the cache, including its termination
   *   through @FT_Done_Face.
   *
   *   Clients are free to map face IDs to anything else.  The most simple
   *   usage is to associate them to a (pathname,face_index) pair that is
   *   used to call @FT_New_Face.  However, more complex schemes are also
   *   possible.
   *
   *   Note that for the cache to work correctly, the face ID values must be
   *   *persistent*, which means that the contents they point to should not
   *   change at runtime, or that their value should not become invalid.
   *
   *   If this is unavoidable (e.g., when a font is uninstalled at runtime),
   *   you should call @FTC_Manager_RemoveFaceID as soon as possible, to let
   *   the cache get rid of any references to the old @FTC_FaceID it may
   *   keep internally.  Failure to do so will lead to incorrect behaviour
   *   or even crashes.
   *
   *   To use the cache, start with calling @FTC_Manager_New to create a new
   *   @FTC_Manager object, which models a single cache instance.  You can
   *   then look up @FT_Face and @FT_Size objects with
   *   @FTC_Manager_LookupFace and @FTC_Manager_LookupSize, respectively.
   *
   *   If you want to use the charmap caching, call @FTC_CMapCache_New, then
   *   later use @FTC_CMapCache_Lookup to perform the equivalent of
   *   @FT_Get_Char_Index, only much faster.
   *
   *   If you want to use the @FT_Glyph caching, call @FTC_ImageCache, then
   *   later use @FTC_ImageCache_Lookup to retrieve the corresponding
   *   @FT_Glyph objects from the cache.
   *
   *   If you need lots of small bitmaps, it is much more memory efficient
   *   to call @FTC_SBitCache_New followed by @FTC_SBitCache_Lookup.  This
   *   returns @FTC_SBitRec structures, which are used to store small
   *   bitmaps directly.  (A small bitmap is one whose metrics and
   *   dimensions all fit into 8-bit integers).
   *
   *   We hope to also provide a kerning cache in the near future.

   * @type: FTC_FaceID
   *
   * @description:
   *   An opaque pointer type that is used to identity face objects.  The
   *   contents of such objects is application-dependent.
   *
   *   These pointers are typically used to point to a user-defined
   *   structure containing a font file path, and face index.
   *
   * @note:
   *   Never use NULL as a valid @FTC_FaceID.
   *
   *   Face IDs are passed by the client to the cache manager, which calls,
   *   when needed, the @FTC_Face_Requester to translate them into new
   *   @FT_Face objects.
   *
   *   If the content of a given face ID changes at runtime, or if the value
   *   becomes invalid (e.g., when uninstalling a font), you should
   *   immediately call @FTC_Manager_RemoveFaceID before any other cache
   *   function.
   *
   *   Failure to do so will result in incorrect behaviour or even
