   *
   * @description:
   *    Return the outline and metrics resolutions of a given PFR face.
   *
   * @input:
   *    face ::
   *      Handle to the input face.  It can be a non-PFR face.
   *
   * @output:
   *    aoutline_resolution ::
   *      Outline resolution.  This is equivalent to `face->units_per_EM` for
   *      non-PFR fonts.  Optional (parameter can be `NULL`).
   *
   *    ametrics_resolution ::
   *      Metrics resolution.  This is equivalent to `outline_resolution` for
   *      non-PFR fonts.  Optional (parameter can be `NULL`).
   *
   *    ametrics_x_scale ::
   *      A 16.16 fixed-point number used to scale distance expressed in
   *      metrics units to device subpixels.  This is equivalent to
   *      `face->size->x_scale`, but for metrics only.  Optional (parameter
   *      can be `NULL`).
   *
   *    ametrics_y_scale ::
   *      Same as `ametrics_x_scale` but for the vertical direction.
   *      optional (parameter can be `NULL`).
   *
   * @return:
   *    FreeType error code.  0~means success.
   *
   * @note:
   *   If the input face is not a PFR, this function will return an error.
   *   However, in all cases, it will return valid values.
