Since FreeType has internal caching, it has had a special
code path in the raster engine which avoided using Qt's glyph
cache, as that would be redundant. However, when compiling
with QPA, we want the same behavior without being able to
access the QFontEngineFT class. To achieve this, I've made
a new abstraction and added it to QFontEngine which allows
the FT engine to provide direct pointers into the alpha maps
stored by FT. This requires a locking/unlocking mechanism.
Yes, the QFontEngine::alphaMap* API is slowly becoming a horrible
mess, but due to time constraints, the task of refactoring these
functions into a more flexible API needs to wait. I've added a
TODO comment for this.
