The FT_Stroker doesn't support dash patterns. Fall back to the normal
path rendering, same as with glyphs that are too big to fit the cache.

Debug printing functions: debug -> print.
Accessors: get noun attribute -> noun attribute.
Find -> lookup when the returned value is not reference counted.
pixmap_with_rect -> pixmap_with_bbox.
We are reserving the word "find" to mean lookups that give ownership
of objects to the caller. Lookup is used in other places where the
ownership is not transferred, or simple values are returned.
The rename is done by the sed script in scripts/rename3.sed

In the existing code, glyphs are stored/retrieved from the glyphcache
with no reference to the antialias level used to create them. This
means that if we are using different aa levels in different threads,
we can retrieve 'non-matching' glyphs and hence get rendering
indeterminisms.
Fixed simply here by storing the aa level in the glyphcache too.

Introduce a new 'fz_image' type; this type contains rudimentary
information about images (such as native, size, colorspace etc)
and a function to call to get a pixmap of that image (with a
size hint).
Instead of passing pixmaps through the device interface (and
holding pixmaps in the display list) we now pass images instead.
The rendering routines therefore call fz_image_to_pixmap to get
pixmaps to render, and fz_pixmap_drop those afterwards.
The file format handling routines therefore need to produce
images rather than pixmaps; xps and cbz currently just wrap
pixmaps as images. PDF is more involved.
The stream handling routines in PDF have been altered so that
they can recognise when the last stream entry in a filter
dictionary is an image decoding filter. Rather than applying
this filter, they read and store the parameters into a
pdf_image_params structure, and stop decoding at that point.
This allows us to read the compressed data for an image into
memory as a block. We can then restart the image decode process
later.
pdf_images therefore consist of the compressed image data for
images. When a pixmap is requested for such an image, the code
checks to see if we have one (of an appropriate size), and if
not, decodes it.
The size hint is used to determine whether it is possible to
subsample the image; currently this is only supported for
JPEGs, but we could add generic subsampling code later.
In order to handle caching the produced images, various changes
have been made to the store and the underlying hash table.
Previously the store was indexed purely by fz_obj keys; we don't
have an fz_obj key any more, so have extended the store by adding
a concept of a key 'type'. A key type is a pointer to a set of
functions that keep/drop/compare and make a hashable key from
a key pointer.
We make a pdf_store.c file that contains functions to offer the
existing fz_obj based functions, and add a new 'type' for keys
(based on the fz_image handle, and the subsample factor) in the
pdf_image.c file.
While working on this, a problem became apparent in the existing
store codel; fz_obj objects had no protection on their reference
counts, hence an interpreter thread could try to alter a ref count
at the same time as a malloc caused an eviction from the store.
This has been solved by using the alloc lock as protection. This in
turn requires some tweaks to the code to make sure we don't try
and keep/drop fz_obj's from the store code while the alloc lock is
held.
A side effect of this work is that when a hash table is created, we
inform it what lock should be used to protect its innards (if any).
If the alloc lock is used, the insert method knows to drop/retake it
to allow it to safely expand the hash table. Callers to the hash
functions have the responsibility of taking/dropping the appropriate
lock, and ensuring that they cope with the possibility that insert
might drop the alloc lock, causing race conditions.

We only open one instance of freetype per document. We therefore
have to ensure that only 1 call to it takes place at a time. We
introduce a lock for this purpose (FZ_LOCK_FREETYPE), and arrange
to take/release it as required.
We also update the font context so it is properly shared.

This is a significant change to the use of locks in MuPDF.
Previously, the user had the option of passing us lock/unlock
functions for a single mutex as part of the allocation struct.
Now we remove these entries from the allocation struct, and
make a separate 'locks' struct. This enables people to use
fz_alloc_default with locking.
If multithreaded operation is required, then the user is
required to create FZ_LOCK_MAX mutexes, which will be locked
or unlocked by MuPDF calling the lock/unlock functions within
the new fz_locks_context structure passed in at context creation.
These mutexes are not required to be recursive (they may be, but
MuPDF should never call them in this way). MuPDF avoids deadlocks
by imposing a locking ordering on itself; a thread will never take
lock n, if it already holds any lock i for which 0 <= i <= n.
Currently, there are 4 locks used within MuPDF.
Lock 0: The alloc lock; taken around all calls to user supplied
(or default) allocation functions. Also taken around all accesses
to the refs field of storable items.
Lock 1: The store lock; taken whenever the store data structures
(specifically the linked list pointers) are accessed.
Lock 2: The file lock; taken whenever a thread is accessing the raw
file. We use the debugging macros to insist that this is held
whenever we do a file based seek or read. We also insist that this
is never held when we resolve an indirect reference, as this can
have the effect of moving the file pointer.
Lock 3: The glyphcache lock; taken whenever a thread calls freetype,
or accesses the glyphcache data structures. This introduces some
complexities w.r.t type3 fonts.
Locking can be hugely problematic, so to ease our minds as to
the correctness of this code, we introduce some debugging macros.
These compile away to nothing unless FITZ_DEBUG_LOCKING is defined.
fz_assert_lock_held(ctx, lock) checks that we hold lock.
fz_assert_lock_not_held(ctx, lock) checks that we do not hold lock.
In addition fz_lock_debug_lock and fz_lock_debug_unlock are used
on every fz_lock/fz_unlock to check the validity of the operation
we are performing - in particular it checks that we do/do not already
hold the lock we are trying to take/drop, and that by taking this
lock we are not violating our defined locking order.
The RESOLVE macro (used throughout the code to check whether we need
to resolve an indirect reference) calls fz_assert_lock_not_held to
ensure that we aren't about to resolve an indirect reference (and
hence move the stream pointer) when the file is locked.
In order to implement the file locking properly, pdf_open_stream
(and friends) now lock the file as a side effect (because they
fz_seek to the start of the stream). The lock is automatically
dropped on an fz_close of such streams.
Previously, the glyph cache was created in a context when it was first
required; this presents problems as it can be shared between several
contexts or not, depending on whether it is created before the
contexts are cloned. We now always create it at startup, so it is
always shared.
This means that we need reference counting for the glyph caches.
Added here.
In fz_render_glyph, we take the glyph cache lock, and check to see
whether the glyph is in the cache. If it is, we bump the refcount,
drop the lock and returned the cached character. If it is not, we
need to render the character.
For freetype based fonts we keep the lock throughout the rendering
process, thus ensuring that freetype is only called in a single
threaded manner.
For type3 fonts, however, we need to invoke the interpreter again
to render the glyph streams. This can require reentrance to this
routine. We therefore drop the glyph cache lock, call the
interpreter to render us our pixmap, and take the lock again.
This dropping and retaking of the lock introduces a possible race
condition; 2 threads may try to render the same character at the
same time. We therefore modify our hash table insert routines to
behave differently if it comes to insert an entry only to find
that an entry with the same key is already there.
We spot this case; if we have just rendered a type3 glyph and when
we try to insert it into the cache discover that someone has beaten
us to it, we just discard our entry and use the cached one.
Hopefully this will seldom be a problem in practise; to solve it
properly would require greater complexity (probably involving
spotting that another thread is already working on the desired
rendering, and sleeping on a semaphore until it completes).

When we moved over to a context based system, we laid the foundation
for a thread-safe mupdf. This commit should complete that process.
Firstly, fz_clone_context is properly implemented so that it
makes a new context, but shares certain sections (currently
just the allocator, and the store).
Secondly, we add locking (to parts of the code that have
previously just had placeholder LOCK/UNLOCK comments). Functions
to lock and unlock a mutex are added to the allocator structure;
omit these (as is the case today) and no multithreading is
(safely) possible. The context will refuse to clone if these are
not provided.
Finally we flesh out the LOCK/UNLOCK comments to be real calls of
the functions - unfortunately this requires us to plumb fz_context
into the fz_keep_storable function (and all the fz_keep_xxx
functions that call it). This is the largest section of the patch.
No changes expected to any test files.

The new fz_malloc_struct(A,B) macro allocates sizeof(B) bytes using
fz_malloc, and then passes the resultant pointer to Memento_label
to label it with "B".
This costs nothing in non-memento builds, but gives much nicer
listings of leaked blocks when memento is enabled.

Fixes for leaks (and SEGVs, division by zeros etc) seen when
Memsqueezing.

Huge pervasive change to lots of files, adding a context for exception
handling and allocation.
In time we'll move more statics into there.
Also fix some for(i = 0; i < function(...); i++) calls.

Detect the d0 or d1 operators by writing a bit to the new device
flags word. This can then be checked by the Type3 code to create
the appropriate backing pixmap.
In order to know what the appropriate backing pixmap is, we pass
an additional colorspace into the glyph rendering code.

The run-together words are dead! Long live the underscores!
The postscript inspired naming convention of using all run-together
words has served us well, but it is now time for more readable code.
In this commit I have also added the sed script, rename.sed, that I used
to convert the source. Use it on your patches and application code.
