WARNING: Parsing of this file by third-party apps is not supported. The
file, and the font files it refers to, will be renamed and/or moved out
from their respective location in the next Android release, and/or the
format or syntax of the file may change significantly. You must not
parse this file for information about system fonts. Instead, you must
call android.text.FontManager#getSystemFonts(). For example, it can be
called as context.getSystemService(FontManager.class).getSystemFonts().
Note that the returned FontConfig includes data on all the defined font
families and all the details about weight, style, etc. It also provides
an open file descriptor to each font file. Note that callers of the API
should ensure they close the given file descriptors once they are done
using them.
