Take a look at the nano second in the mtime to figure out
if the cache needs to be updated if available.
and do the mutex lock between scanning and writing a cache
to avoid the conflict.
Also we don't need to scan directories again after writing
caches. so getting rid of the related code as well.

In 32ac7c75e8 the behavior of
FcConfigAppFontAddFile/Dir() were changed to return false
if not fonts were found. While this is welldefined and useful
for AddFile(), it's quite problematic for AddDir(). For example,
if the directory is empty, is that a failure or success? Worse,
the false value from AddDir() was being propagated all the way
to FcInit() returning false now. This only happened upon memory
allocation failure before, and some clients assert that FcInit()
is successful.
With this change, AddDir() is reverted back to what it was.
AddFont() change (which was actually in fcdir.c) from the original
commit is left in.
just setting FC_MATCH=3 shows a lot of information and hard to keep on track for informamtion
which is really necessary to see. to use this more effectively, added FC_DBG_MATCH_FILTER to
see for what one really want to see. it takes a comma-separated-list of object names.
If you want to see family name only, try like this:
FC_DBG_MATCH_FILTER=family FC_DEBUG=4096 fc-match
debugging output will be filtered out and see family only in the result.
Continue to increase the object id even after FcFini()
and detect the overflow. that would be rather easier than
reset the object id with the complicated mutex and atomic
functions.
This situation would be quite unlikely to happen though
Adds FC_SYMBOL.
This affects fonts having a cmap with platform 3 encoding 0.
We now map their glyphs from the PUA area to the Latin1 area.
See thread "Webdings and other MS symbol fonts don't display"
on the mailing list.
Test before/after with:
$ pango-view --markup --text='<span fallback="false">×</span>' --font=Wingdings
Paths starting with '/' don't make sense on W32 as-is,
prepend the installation root directory to them.
This allows the cache to be contained within a particular
fontconfig installation (as long as the default
--with-cache-dir= is overriden at configure time).
