   *
   * There are three distinct validation levels defined here:
   *
   * FT_VALIDATE_DEFAULT ::
   *   A table that passes this validation level can be used reliably by
   *   FreeType.  It generally means that all offsets have been checked to
   *   prevent out-of-bound reads, that array counts are correct, etc.
   *
   * FT_VALIDATE_TIGHT ::
   *   A table that passes this validation level can be used reliably and
   *   doesn't contain invalid data.  For example, a charmap table that
   *   returns invalid glyph indices will not pass, even though it can be
   *   used with FreeType in default mode (the library will simply return an
   *   error later when trying to load the glyph).
   *
   *   It also checks that fields which must be a multiple of 2, 4, or 8,
   *   don't have incorrect values, etc.
   *
   * FT_VALIDATE_PARANOID ::
   *   Only for font debugging.  Checks that a table follows the
   *   specification by 100%.  Very few fonts will be able to pass this level
   *   anyway but it can be useful for certain tools like font
   *   editors/converters.
