As I render an glyph outline in several bands. Before each rendering, I have 
to shift all points of the outline. If I use the outline through 
FT_GlyphSlotRec.outline, all my transformation and translation will be 
applied into the original glyph outline of the face. It's why I'd like to 
copy it in a target outline.
I saw that FT_Outline_Copy function can copy an outline into another one. 
But both objects must have the same sizes (number of points & number of 
contours).

Best regards.
