Because if spacing is not FC_PROPORTIONAL or FC_DUAL, we know in advance
that max_advance_width or max_advance are identical to the average of
all ASCII glyphs. Such special treatment is an optimization, nothing
more. max_advance_width is the advance width (in em space) of the
widest glyph when the font is scalable, and max_advance is that in pixel
space if not.
