* Access the names embedded in TrueType and OpenType files.

* @description:
* The TrueType and OpenType specifications allow the inclusion of a
* special names table ('name') in font files. This table contains
* textual (and internationalized) information regarding the font, like
* family name, copyright, version, etc.
*
* The definitions below are used to access them if available.

* Note that this has nothing to do with glyph names!

* @struct:
* FT_SfntName
*
* @description:
* A structure used to model an SFNT 'name' table entry.
*
* @fields:
* platform_id ::
* The platform ID for `string`. See @TT_PLATFORM_XXX for possible
* values.
*
* encoding_id ::
* The encoding ID for `string`. See @TT_APPLE_ID_XXX, @TT_MAC_ID_XXX,
* @TT_ISO_ID_XXX, @TT_MS_ID_XXX, and @TT_ADOBE_ID_XXX for possible
* values.
*
* language_id ::
* The language ID for `string`. See @TT_MAC_LANGID_XXX and
* @TT_MS_LANGID_XXX for possible values.
*
* Registered OpenType values for `language_id` are always smaller than
* 0x8000; values equal or larger than 0x8000 usually indicate a
* language tag string (introduced in OpenType version 1.6). Use
* function @FT_Get_Sfnt_LangTag with `language_id` as its argument to
* retrieve the associated language tag.
*
* name_id ::
* An identifier for `string`. See @TT_NAME_ID_XXX for possible
* values.
*
* string ::
* The 'name' string. Note that its format differs depending on the
* (platform,encoding) pair, being either a string of bytes (without a
* terminating `NULL` byte) or containing UTF-16BE entities.
*
* string_len ::
* The length of `string` in bytes.
*
* @note:
* Please refer to the TrueType or OpenType specification for more
* details.
