// Caching:
//
// Requesting a font from the browser process is expensive and so is
// "activating" said font.  Caching of loaded fonts is complicated by the fact
// that it's impossible to get a unique identifier for the on-disk font file
// from inside the sandboxed renderer process.
// This means that when loading a font we need to round-trip through the browser
// process in order to get the unique font file identifer which we might already
// have activated and cached.
//
// In order to save as much work as we can, we maintain 2 levels of caching
// for the font data:
// 1. A dumb cache keyed by the font name/style (information we can determine
// from inside the sandbox).
// 2. A smarter cache keyed by the real "unique font id".
//
// In order to perform a lookup in #2 we need to consult with the browser to get
// us the lookup key.  While this doesn't save us the font load, it does save
// us font activation.
//
// It's important to remember that existing FontPlatformData objects are already
// cached, so a cache miss in the code in this file isn't necessarily so bad.
