Remove ABI-breaking field in public PS_InfoFontRec definition.
Instead, we define a new internal PS_FontExtraRec structure to
hold the additionnal field, then place it in various internal
positions of the corresponding FT_Face derived objects.
* include/freetype/t1tables.h (PS_FontInfoRec): Remove the
`fs_type' field from the public structure.

I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
- Very unfortunately, FreeType 2.3.8 contained a change that
broke its official ABI. The end result is that programs compiled
against previous versions of the library, but dynamically linked
to 2.3.8 can experience memory corruption if they call the
FT_Get_PS_Font_Info() function.
We recommend all users to upgrade to 2.3.9 as soon as possible,
or to downgrade to a previous release of the library if this is
not an option.
The origin of the bug is that a new field was added to the
publicly defined PS_FontInfoRec structure. Unfortunately objects
of this type can be stack or heap allocated by callers of
FT_Get_PS_Font_Info(), resulting in a memory buffer over-write
with its implementation in 2.3.8.
If you want to know if your code is vulnerable to this issue,
simply search for the substrings "PS_FontInfo" and
"PS_Font_Info" in your source code. If none is found, your code
is safe and will not be affected.
The FreeType team apologizes for the problem.
- The POSIX support of MacOS resource-fork fonts (Suitcase fonts
and LaserWriter Type1 PostScript fonts) was broken in 2.3.8. If
FreeType2 is built without Carbon framework, these fonts are not
