Remarks
Set the minimum font metrics used for line spacing.
null is the default value. If null is set or left as default, the font metrics obtained by Paint.getFontMetricsForLocale(Paint.FontMetrics) is used.
The minimum meaning here is the minimum value of line spacing: maximum value of Paint.ascent(), minimum value of Paint.descent().
By setting this value, each line will have minimum line spacing regardless of the text rendered. For example, usually Japanese script has larger vertical metrics than Latin script. By setting the metrics obtained by Paint.getFontMetricsForLocale(Paint.FontMetrics) for Japanese or leave it null if the Paint's locale is Japanese, the line spacing for Japanese is reserved if the text is an English text. If the vertical metrics of the text is larger than Japanese, for example Burmese, the bigger font metrics is used.
