Lazy load fonts in a FontGroup
The first commit message explains this so I'll just copy it here:
---
This is a step towards fixing #17267. To fix that, we need to be able to
try various different fallback fonts in turn, which would become
unweildy with the prior eager-loading strategy.
Prior to this change, FontGroup loaded up all Font instances, including
the fallback font, before any of them were checked for the presence of
the glyphs we're trying to render.
So for the following CSS:
font-family: Helvetica, Arial;
The FontGroup would contain a Font instance for Helvetica, and a Font
instance for Arial, and a Font instance for the fallback font.
It may be that Helvetica contains glyphs for every character in the
document, and therefore Arial and the fallback font are not needed at
all.
This change makes the strategy lazy, so that we'll only create a Font
for Arial if we cannot find a glyph within Helvetica. I've also
substantially refactored the existing code in the process and added
some documentation along the way.

I've added some tests in the second commit, but it required quite a bit of gymnastics to make it possible to write such a test. I'm not sure if the added complexity to the production code is worth it?
On the other hand, having this infrastructure in place may be useful for testing future changes in this area, and also possibly brings us a step closer to extracting a library as discussed in #4901. (What I mean by that is: it reduces coupling between `FontCacheThread` and `FontContext` -- the latter would have a place in such a library, the former wouldn't.)

Servo currently uses `heapsize`, but Stylo/Gecko use `malloc_size_of`.
`malloc_size_of` is better -- it handles various cases that `heapsize` does not
-- so this patch changes Servo to use `malloc_size_of`.
This patch makes the following changes to the `malloc_size_of` crate.
- Adds `MallocSizeOf` trait implementations for numerous types, some built-in
(e.g. `VecDeque`), some external and Servo-only (e.g. `string_cache`).
- Makes `enclosing_size_of_op` optional, because vanilla jemalloc doesn't
support that operation.
- For `HashSet`/`HashMap`, falls back to a computed estimate when
`enclosing_size_of_op` isn't available.
- Adds an extern "C" `malloc_size_of` function that does the actual heap
measurement; this is based on the same functions from the `heapsize` crate.
This patch makes the following changes elsewhere.
- Converts all the uses of `heapsize` to instead use `malloc_size_of`.
- Disables the "heapsize"/"heap_size" feature for the external crates that
provide it.
- Removes the `HeapSizeOf` implementation from `hashglobe`.
- Adds `ignore` annotations to a few `Rc`/`Arc`, because `malloc_size_of`
doesn't derive those types, unlike `heapsize`.
This uses a (very simple) Win32 API call to enumerate font
families available, and load them as byte buffers.
The font rasterization itself is done by freetype.
This gets Servo + WR + Windows working, but should be improved
by adding a proper implementation that matches fonts correctly
and also uses DirectWrite (or GDI) to handle font rasterization.
