[ft] Add hb_ft_face_create_referenced() and hb_ft_font_create_referenced()
When I originally wrote hb-ft, FreeType objects did not support reference
counting. As such, hb_ft_face_create() and hb_ft_font_create() had a
"destroy" callback and client was responsible for making sure FT_Face is
kept around as long as the hb-font/face are alive.
However, since this was not clearly documented, some clienets didn't
correctly did that. In particular, some clients assumed that it's safe
to destroy FT_Face and then hb_face_t. This, indeed, used to work, until
45fd9424c723f115ca98995b8f8a25185a6fc71d, which make face destroy access
font tables.
Now, I fixed that issue in
395b35903e052aecc97d0807e4f813c64c0d2b0b since
the access was not needed, but the problem remains that not all clients
handle this correctly. See:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=86300
Fortunately, FT_Reference_Face() was added to FreeType in 2010, and so we
can use it now. Originally I wanted to change hb_ft_face_create() and
hb_ft_font_create() to reference the face if destroy==NULL was passed in.
That would improve pretty much all clients, with little undesired effects.
Except that FreeType itself, when compiled with HarfBuzz support, calls
hb_ft_font_create() with destroy==NULL and saves the resulting hb-font on
the ft-face (why does it not free it immediately?). Making hb-face
reference ft-face causes a cycling reference there. At least, that's my
current understanding.
At any rate, a cleaner approach, even if it means all clients will need a
change, is to introduce brand new API. Which this commit does.
Some comments added to hb-ft.h, hoping to make future clients make better
choices.
