Gets the extents for a string of text. The extents describe a
user-space rectangle that encloses the "inked" portion of the text,
(as it would be drawn by cairo_show_text()). Additionally, the
x_advance and y_advance values indicate the amount by which the
current point would be advanced by cairo_show_text().
Note that whitespace characters do not directly contribute to the
size of the rectangle (extents.width and extents.height). They do
contribute indirectly by changing the position of non-whitespace
characters. In particular, trailing whitespace characters are
likely to not affect the size of the rectangle, though they will
affect the x_advance and y_advance values.
