An FcFontSet contains a list of FcPatterns. Internally fontconfig uses this
data structure to hold sets of fonts. Externally, fontconfig returns the
results of listing fonts in this format. 'nfont' holds the number of
patterns in the 'fonts' array; 'sfont' is used to indicate the size of that
array.
