   *   glyph-to-script-map
   *
   * @description:
   *   *Experimental* *only*
   *
   *   The auto-hinter provides various script modules to hint glyphs.
   *   Examples of supported scripts are Latin or CJK.  Before a glyph is
   *   auto-hinted, the Unicode character map of the font gets examined, and
   *   the script is then determined based on Unicode character ranges, see
   *   below.
   *
   *   OpenType fonts, however, often provide much more glyphs than
   *   character codes (small caps, superscripts, ligatures, swashes, etc.),
   *   to be controlled by so-called `features'.  Handling OpenType features
   *   can be quite complicated and thus needs a separate library on top of
   *   FreeType.
   *
   *   The mapping between glyph indices and scripts (in the auto-hinter
   *   sense, see the @FT_AUTOHINTER_SCRIPT_XXX values) is stored as an
   *   array with `num_glyphs' elements, as found in the font's @FT_Face
   *   structure.  The `glyph-to-script-map' property returns a pointer to
   *   this array, which can be modified as needed.  Note that the
   *   modification should happen before the first glyph gets processed by
   *   the auto-hinter so that the global analysis of the font shapes
   *   actually uses the modified mapping.
   *
   *   The following example code demonstrates how to access it (omitting
   *   the error handling).
   *
   *   {
   *     FT_Library                library;
   *     FT_Face                   face;
   *     FT_Prop_GlyphToScriptMap  prop;
   *
   *
   *     FT_Init_FreeType( &library );
   *     FT_New_Face( library, "foo.ttf", 0, &face );
   *
   *     prop.face = face;
   *
   *     FT_Property_Get( library, "autofitter",
   *                               "glyph-to-script-map", &prop );
   *
   *     // adjust `prop.map' as needed right here

   *
   *   Warping only works in `light' auto-hinting mode.  The idea of the

   *   dimension (which is usually the horizontal axis) so that as much of
   *   its segments are aligned (more or less) to the grid.  To find out a
   *   glyph's optimal scaling and shifting value, various parameter
   *   combinations are tried and scored.
   *

   *   warping (omitting the error handling).

   * @note:
   *   This property can be used with @FT_Property_Get also.
   *
   *   The warping code can also change advance widths.  Have a look at the
   *   `lsb_delta' and `rsb_delta' fields in the @FT_GlyphSlotRec structure
   *   for details on improving inter-glyph distances while rendering.
   *
   *   Since warping is a global property of the auto-hinter it is best to
   *   change its value before rendering any face.  Otherwise, you should
   *   reload all faces that get auto-hinted in `light' hinting mode.
