     22 
     23     This class is ported to each environment. It is responsible for bridging
     24     the gap between the (sort of) abstract class SkTypeface and the
     25     platform-specific implementation that provides access to font files.
     26 
     27     One basic task is for each create (subclass of) SkTypeface, the FontHost is
     28     responsible for assigning a uniqueID. The ID should be unique for the
     29     underlying font file/data, not unique per typeface instance. Thus it is
     30     possible/common to request a typeface for the same font more than once
     31     (e.g. asking for the same font by name several times). The FontHost may
     32     return seperate typeface instances in that case, or it may choose to use a
     33     cache and return the same instance (but calling typeface->ref(), since the
     34     caller is always responsible for calling unref() on each instance that is
     35     returned). Either way, the fontID for those instance(s) will be the same.
     36     In addition, the fontID should never be set to 0. That value is used as a
     37     sentinel to indicate no-font-id.
     38 
     39     The major aspects are:
     40     1) Given either a name/style, return a subclass of SkTypeface that
     41         references the closest matching font available on the host system.
     42     2) Given the data for a font (either in a stream or a file name), return
     43         a typeface that allows access to that data.
     44     3) Each typeface instance carries a 32bit ID for its corresponding font.
     45         SkFontHost turns that ID into a stream to access the font's data.
     46     4) Given a font ID, return a subclass of SkScalerContext, which connects a
     47         font scaler (e.g. freetype or other) to the font's data.
     48     5) Utilites to manage the font cache (budgeting) and gamma correction
