Detailed Description

FontDatabase provides a local font database for AeonGUI, independent of system-installed fonts. It uses FcConfig to load fonts from application-provided directories. It also manages a PangoFontMap backed by the local FcConfig.

This is a singleton; call Initialize()/Finalize() once.
