Right now fontconfig uses a cache found first in a path and
cachedirs are the order of the system-wide path and then the user path.
this is due to avoid writing caches into the user path when running as root.
However, changing caches by certain config only, e.g. using <match target="scan">
may not take effect by this behavior, because it may be stored into the user path.
Thus, needing to find the latest cache out from paths.

When loading the default config file with FONTCONFIG_SYSROOT,
it fails if no /etc/fonts/fonts.conf is available, even if it is
there where is based on sysroot.
To address this, FcConfig is required to determine the sysroot.
therefore, this change makes FcConfigFilename() deprecated,
use FcConfigGetFilename() instead.

cachedir is used to determine where cache files are stored.
the empty directory will ends up to put them under the top of
directory of XDG_CACHE_HOME. that messes it up and must be avoided.
As a note, if you want to read/write something from the top of
XDG_DATA_HOME (dir) and/or XDG_CACHE_HOME (cachedir),
put "." instead of the empty.

In some cases, non-English languages might appears first in current order.
and when having English name with non-English language ID like Google Noto CJK TC,
English name with English language ID will be dropped due to duplicate.
This fixes that issue.
Most of functionality should be moved to FcFreeTypeQueryAll()
for varfonts now though, if doing the same to FcFreeTypeQuery()
returns Null pattern because of inappropriate masking.
This might be not that big deal for varfonts support. but

'salt' attribute affects a cache filename to generate different name from directory name.
This is useful when sharing caches with host on sandbox and/or give a filename differently:
<dir salt="randomdata">/usr/share/fonts</dir>
<remap-dir as-path="/usr/share/fonts" salt="salt for /usr/share/fonts on host">/run/host/fonts</remap-dir>
Applications can read caches as-is for fonts on /run/host/fonts where is mounted from host.
and write a cache for their own fonts on /usr/share/fonts with different name.
The UUID files would be placed in each font directory to provide the
unique cache name, independent of path, for that directory. The UUID
files are undesireable for a couple of reasons:
1) They must be placed in the font directories to be useful. This
requires modifying the font directories themselves, introducing
potential visible timestamp changes when running multiple
applications, and makes the cache processing inconsistent between
applications with permission to write to the font directories and
applications without such permission.
2) The UUID contents were generated randomly, which makes the font
cache not reproducible across multiple runs.
One proposed fix for 2) is to make the UUID dependent on the font
directory path, but once we do that, we can simply use the font
directory path itself as the key as the original MD5-based font cache
naming mechanism did.
The goal of the UUID file mechanism was to fix startup time of
flatpaks; as the font path names inside the flatpak did not match the
font path names in the base system, the font cache would need to be
reconstructed the first time the flatpak was launched.
The new mechanism for doing this is to allow each '<dir>' element in
the configuration include a 'map' attribute. When looking for a cache
file for a particular directory, if the directory name starts with the
contents of the <dir> element, that portion of the name will be
replaced with the value of the 'map' attribute.
Outside of the flatpak, nothing need change -- fontconfig will build
cache files using real directory names.
Inside the flatpak, the custom fonts.conf file will now include
mappings such as this:
<dir map="/usr/share/fonts">/run/host/fonts</dir>
When scanning the directory /run/host/fonts/ttf, fontconfig will
use the name /usr/share/fonts/ttf as the source for building the cache
file name.
The existing FC_FILE replacement code used for the UUID-based
implementation continues to correctly adapt font path names seen by
applications.
v2:
Leave FcDirCacheCreateUUID stub around to avoid removing
public API function.

This saves the value of FONTCONFIG_SYSROOT in the config instead of
having to call getenv every time we need this value.
This also uses 'realpath' to construct a canonical path to sysroot,
eliminating symlinks and relative path names.

Otherwise, there would be build errors in the following 2 cases:

This fixes the sort of weird things like `fc-match :size=rgb` done without any errors.
This might be annoyed but the error messages should helps to fix an application bug or
suggest more useful constant names to fontconfig.

"color" property has a value more than 1 because the value of FT_HAS_COLOR
is directly set to it. this seems breaking the behavior of FcFontList with FC_COLOR=true
because it is more than FcDontCare.
So changing comparison that way.
Because FcDirCacheDeleteUUID does not reset the modification time on
the directory, and because FcDirCacheRead unconditionally creates the
UUID file each time it is run, any empty directory in the cache will
get its timestamp changed each time the cache for that directory is
read.
Instead, just leave the UUID file around as it is harmless.
The alternative would be to only create the UUID file after the cache
has been created and the directory has been discovered to be
non-empty, but that would delay the creation of the UUID file.

GPerf seems not allowing the empty lines though, current recipes are supposed to drop them.
but seems not working on some env.
So taking the proper way to do that instead of incompatible things against platforms.
FcFontSetFont() accesses fs->fonts in that macro though, there was no error checks
if it is null or not.
As a result, there was a code path that it could be a null.
Even though this is unlikely to see in usual use, it might be intentionally created
in a cache.
So if fs->fonts is a null, we should consider a cache is invalid.
FcConfigRealFilename() follows symlinks, but the link may be relative to the
directory containing the link. For example, on my system, I have this file:
/etc/fonts/conf.d/99-language-selector-zh.conf ->
../conf.avail/99-language-selector-zh.conf
Since /etc/fonts/conf.d is probably not in PATH, open()ing the file would fail.
This change makes FcConfigRealFilename() return the canonicalized filename
instead. So for the example above, it would return:
/etc/fonts/conf.avail/99-language-selector-zh.conf

CFI [1] is a dynamic analysis tool that checks types at runtime. It reports an
error when using a function with signature eg. (void (*)(char*)) as
(void (*)(void*)). This change adds some wrapper functions to avoid this issue.
In optimized builds, the functions should get optimized away.

This changes the rewriting of the FC_FILE values for relocated caches to an earlier stage
while reading the cache. This is better, because it means all APIs will report the
rewritten paths, not just the once that use the list apis.
We do this by detecting the relocated case and duplicating the FcPattern and FcPatternElm
in an cache allocation (which will die with the cache) and then reusing the FcValueLists
from the cache.
This means that in the rewritten case we will use some more memory, but not the full
size of the cache. In a test here I had 800k of relocated caches, but ~200k of wasted
on duplicating the objects.
This should fix https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=106618
Whilst working on the Reproducible Builds[0] effort, we noticed that
fontconfig generates unreproducible cache files.
This is due to fc-cache uses the modification timestamps of each
directory in the "checksum" and "checksum_nano" members of the _FcCache
struct. This is so that it can identify which cache files are valid
and/or require regeneration.
This patch changes the behaviour of the checksum calculations to prefer
the value of the SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH[1] environment variable over the
directory's own mtime. This variable can then be exported by build
systems to ensure reproducible output.
If SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH is not set or is newer than the mtime of the
directory, the existing behaviour is unchanged.
