Implement hardware-accelerated performance enhancements for FreeType:

WebCrypto Integration (8x target speedup):

  • Add ftweb-crypto.h/c for browser crypto.subtle API
  • Hardware SHA-256 hashing for font cache keys
  • Async JS bindings with ASYNCIFY support
  • Software fallback for small data or missing WebCrypto

SIMD Bitmap Operations (4x target speedup):

  • Add ftsimd.h/c using WebAssembly SIMD128 intrinsics
  • Optimized FT_SIMD_Bitmap_Copy (16 bytes/iteration)
  • Optimized FT_SIMD_Bitmap_Blend with alpha blending
  • Integrated into FT_Bitmap_Copy for automatic acceleration

Build System Updates:

  • Add WebCrypto/SIMD sources to meson.build
  • Enable -msimd128 compiler flag
  • Configure ASYNCIFY for async WebCrypto calls
  • Add benchmark task to deno.json

Benchmarks:

  • Create webcrypto-bench.ts for performance validation
  • SHA-256: Target ≥8x speedup over software
  • Bitmap copy: Target ≥4x speedup over memcpy
  • Bitmap blend: Target ≥3x speedup over scalar

Performance-critical paths optimized:

  • Font cache key generation (SHA-256)
  • Glyph bitmap copying (rasterization)
  • Anti-aliasing bitmap blending
