FT_GlyphSlot_Embolden exists only for historial reasons, and is a
wrapper to FT_Bitmap_Embolen and FT_Outline_Embolden.  One can copy the
code and modify it to suit his/her need.

If new APIs are to be added, I would prefer to have FT_Glyph_Embolden
and FT_Glyph_Oblique.  Glyph transformations should be done to FT_Glyph,
not to FT_GlyphSlot.
