   *   How to add, upgrade, remove, and control modules from FreeType.
   *
   * @description:
   *   The definitions below are used to manage modules within FreeType.
   *   Internal and external modules can be added, upgraded, and removed at
   *   runtime.  For example, an alternative renderer or proprietary font
   *   driver can be registered and prioritized.  Additionally, some module
   *   properties can also be controlled.
   *
   *   Here is a list of existing values of the `module_name` field in the
   *   @FT_Module_Class structure.
