Trying to address what these configuration files really do.
This change allows to see the short description that mention
the purpose of the content in the config file and obtain
them through API.
This change also encourage one who want to make some UI for
the user-specific configuration management. it is the main
purpose of this change for me though.
Aside from that, I've also made programs translatable. so
we see more dependencies on the build time for gettext,
and itstool to generate PO from xml.
Our test case relies on the outcome of the family property from freetype though,
it was changed in 2.7.1:
- PCF family names are made more `colourful'; they now include the
foundry and information whether they contain wide characters.
For example, you no longer get `Fixed' but rather `Sony Fixed'
or `Misc Fixed Wide'.

To support the one of changes in gperf 3.1:
* The 'len' parameter of the hash function and of the lookup function is now
of type 'size_t' instead of 'unsigned int'. This makes it safe to call these
functions with strings of length > 4 GB, on 64-bit machines.
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.

Passing -Werror in the scandir() checks caused Studio cc to report
"Unrecognized option errors", confusing configure into thinking that
scandir() was not available. Use Studio equivalent flags instead.
Leaves -Werror as the default for all other compilers, including
unknown ones, to flag to them that they need to update their flags
as well if -Werror is not correct for them.

This feature requires the FreeType 2.5.1 or later at the build time.
Besides <range> element allows <double> elements with this changes.
This may breaks the cache but not bumping in this change sets at this moment.
please be aware if you want to try it and run fc-cache before/after to
avoid the weird thing against it.
