69   *   These values determine how two joining lines are rendered
70   *   in a stroker.
71   *
72   * @values:
73   *   FT_STROKER_LINEJOIN_ROUND ::
74   *     Used to render rounded line joins.  Circular arcs are used
75   *     to join two lines smoothly.
76   *
77   *   FT_STROKER_LINEJOIN_BEVEL ::
78   *     Used to render beveled line joins.  The outer corner of
79   *     the joined lines is filled by enclosing the triangular
80   *     region of the corner with a straight line between the
81   *     outer corners of each stroke.
82   *
83   *   FT_STROKER_LINEJOIN_MITER_FIXED ::
84   *     Used to render mitered line joins, with fixed bevels if the
85   *     miter limit is exceeded.  The outer edges of the strokes
86   *     for the two segments are extended until they meet at an
87   *     angle.  If the segments meet at too sharp an angle (such
88   *     that the miter would extend from the intersection of the
89   *     segments a distance greater than the product of the miter
90   *     limit value and the border radius), then a bevel join (see
91   *     above) is used instead.  This prevents long spikes being
92   *     created.  FT_STROKER_LINEJOIN_MITER_FIXED generates a miter
93   *     line join as used in PostScript and PDF.
94   *
95   *   FT_STROKER_LINEJOIN_MITER_VARIABLE ::
96   *   FT_STROKER_LINEJOIN_MITER ::
97   *     Used to render mitered line joins, with variable bevels if
98   *     the miter limit is exceeded.  The intersection of the
99   *     strokes is clipped at a line perpendicular to the bisector
100   *     of the angle between the strokes, at the distance from the
101   *     intersection of the segments equal to the product of the
102   *     miter limit value and the border radius.  This prevents
103   *     long spikes being created.
104   *     FT_STROKER_LINEJOIN_MITER_VARIABLE generates a mitered line
105   *     join as used in XPS.  FT_STROKER_LINEJOIN_MITER is an alias
106   *     for FT_STROKER_LINEJOIN_MITER_VARIABLE, retained for
