-Converts the given pattern into text format described by the format specifier.
-The format specifier is similar to a C style printf string, which the
-printf(2) man page provides a good introduction to. However, as fontconfig
-already knows the type of data that is being printed, you must omit the type
-specifier. In its place put the element name you wish to print enclosed in
-curly braces ({}). For example, to print the family name and style the
-pattern, use the format "%{family} %{style}\n".
-There can be an option width specifier after the percent sign and before
-the opening brace.  The width modifier acts similar to those in printf.
-The return value refers to newly allocated memory which should be freed by the
-caller using free(), or NULL if <parameter>format</parameter> is invalid.
