Introduce switch and configure system font instantiation with a FontScanner to ensure that instantiation happens through Fontations instead of FreeType. The outcome of this change has been tested in [1]: If this flag is switched on, Linux system font in content and in the Chrome browser UI on Linux and ChromeOS will move to being rendered by Fontations. This can mean tiny pixel changes in antialiasing, but from a user experience point of view, this is intended as an unnoticeable change.

Skia is a complete 2D graphic library for drawing Text, Geometries, and Images.
The Skia library can be found in //third_party/skia, and full documentation
is available at https://skia.org/
This directory includes low-level chromium utilities for interacting with Skia:
- Build rules for the Skia library
- Configuration of the library (
config/SkUserConfig.h) - Serialization of Skia types (
public/mojom) - Implementations of Skia interfaces for platform behavior, such as fonts and
memory allocation, as well as other miscellaneous utilities (
ext).
Note that Skia is used directly in many parts of the chromium codebase. This directory is only concerned with code layered on Skia that will be reused frequently, across multiple chromium components.
