A fontmap is used to cache information about available fonts,
and holds certain global parameters such as the resolution.
In most cases, you can use `funcPangoCairo.font_map_get_default]
instead.
Note that the type of the returned object will depend
on the particular font backend Cairo was compiled to use;
You generally should only use the pango.font_map.FontMap and
pangocairo.font_map.FontMap interfaces on the returned object.
You can override the type of backend returned by using an
environment variable PANGOCAIRO_BACKEND. Supported types,
based on your build, are fc (fontconfig), win32, and coretext.
If requested type is not available, NULL is returned. Ie.
this is only useful for testing, when at least two backends
are compiled in.
