We have FT_LOAD_BITMAP_METRICS_ONLY for bitmap fonts. Perhaps we could
extend it for the outlines by bailing at
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/freetype/freetype2.git/tree/src/smooth/ftsmooth.c?id=39ce3ac499d4cd7371031a062f410953c8ecce29#n301

Doesn't Skia do GPU-based rendering? Their current workaround is to
preallocate old-fashioned size, which should be slightly larger or
identical to what FreeType eventually returns, then they eventually
adjust dimensions to the actual image,
