[cairo] [patch] gl: use font's antialias option to check whether it needs mask

[Henry (Yu) Song - SISA]

Hi, Chris

Is it implemented in cairo-ft-font.c and cairo-user-font.c  where if font antialias option is SUBPIXEL/BEST, it always generate ARGB32 image while A8 is for DEFAULT/GRAY/....?

In cairo-quartz-font.c - it always generates A8 format surface for glyph?

I could see other area that is contradictory to this.

Am I correct?

Thanks

Henry

Yes, in theory this looks correct, which also probably means we can be
stricter when generating the glyph surfaces as well. That is also worth
investigating.
