* How to manage Multiple Masters fonts.
*
* @description:
* The following types and functions are used to manage Multiple Master
* fonts, i.e., the selection of specific design instances by setting
* design axis coordinates.
*
* Besides Adobe MM fonts, the interface supports Apple's TrueType GX and
* OpenType variation fonts. Some of the routines only work with Adobe
* MM fonts, others will work with all three types. They are similar
* enough that a consistent interface makes sense.
*
* For Adobe MM fonts, macro @FT_IS_SFNT returns false. For GX and
* OpenType variation fonts, it returns true.
