System fonts used to be instantiated using the system font loader and
this change restores that behavior. In addition, on macOS and FreeType
platforms font data for system fonts is loaded using memory mapping. The
benefit is that system font loaders typically are able to cache fonts in
system memory (using memory mapping, for instance) and we'd like to load
them in a the way most compatible with other applications.
On my Linux system, this manages to get the overhead of loading a very
large font down from 10ms to approximately 1ms. Subsequent runs show
even less overhead. We've measured similar gains on macOS systems.
Currently, system font data must be loaded into memory manually for
canvas and this is unlikely to change even with a switch to `vello`. The
use of explicit memmory mapping should help in this case -- though it
probably won't be possible to use this properly on macOS and Windows if
we ever want to load fonts from TTCs properly.

This changes modifes the way that font data is sent over IPC channels.
Instead of serializing the data or sending it via IPC byte senders, font
data is copied into shared memory and a copy of the handle is sent over
the channel.
There is also the idea of sending the file handle of the on disk data of
system fonts. This could be implemented as a further followup once there
is an abstraction in `ipc-channel` over file handles.
To accomplish this, a `FontData` abstraction is added, which also allows
caching an in-memory shared `Arc<Vec<u8>>` version of the data (neeeded
by some APIs). This could also be a place for caching font tables in the
future.
Finally, the `FontCacheThread` is renamed to the `SystemFontService`
while the proxy for this is now named `SystemFontServiceProxy`.

This crate only takes care of fonts now as graphics related things are
split into other crates. In addition, this exposes data structures at
the top of the crate, hiding the implementation details and making it
simpler to import them.
