Destroys a font set.  Note that this destroys any referenced patterns as
well.

@PURPOSE@	Add to a font set
@DESC@
Adds a pattern to a font set.  Note that the pattern is not copied before
being inserted into the set. Returns FcFalse if the pattern cannot be
inserted into the set (due to allocation failure). Otherwise returns FcTrue.

@DESC@
Selects fonts matching <parameter>pattern</parameter> from
<parameter>sets</parameter>, creates patterns from those
fonts containing only the objects in <parameter>object_set</parameter> and returns
the set of unique such patterns.
If <parameter>config</parameter> is NULL, the default configuration is checked
to be up to date, and used.

@DESC@
Finds the font in <parameter>sets</parameter> most closely matching

<function>FcFontRenderPrepare</function> for that font and the provided
pattern. This function should be called only after
<function>FcConfigSubstitute</function> and

If <parameter>config</parameter> is NULL, the current configuration is used.
Returns NULL if an error occurs during this process.

This function is useful for diagnosing font related issues, printing the
complete contents of every pattern in <parameter>set</parameter>. The format
of the output is designed to be of help to users and developers, and may
change at any time.

Returns the list of fonts from <parameter>sets</parameter>
sorted by closeness to <parameter>pattern</parameter>.  
If <parameter>trim</parameter> is FcTrue,
elements in the list which don't include Unicode coverage not provided by
earlier elements in the list are elided.  The union of Unicode coverage of
all of the fonts is returned in <parameter>csp</parameter>,

been called for <parameter>p</parameter>;
otherwise the results will not be correct.

The returned FcFontSet references FcPattern structures which may be shared
by the return value from multiple FcFontSort calls, applications cannot
modify these patterns.  Instead, they should be passed, along with
<parameter>pattern</parameter> to
<function>FcFontRenderPrepare</function> which combines them into a complete pattern.

The FcFontSet returned by FcFontSetSort is destroyed by calling FcFontSetDestroy.
