Visualization, Font - extend interface for loading resources
Description
Application's fonts resources can be sourced in different ways, including reading from files, memory and streams (compressed files, network).
The font manager's interface supports only the file path as the source despite of the fact that base font layer driven with FreeType library supports all three mentioned types of font resource sourcing.
It is proposed to extend the interface. One of the common situation that can be also considered is loading font files from precompiled binary resources (for instance, QT app).
