This resurrects the space fallback feature, after I disabled
the compatibility decomposition. Now I can release HarfBuzz
again without breaking Pango!
It also remembers which space character it was, such that later
on we can approximate the width of this particular space
character. That part is not implemented yet.
We normalize all GC=Zs chars except for U+1680 OGHA SPACE MARK,
which is better left alone.

Based on discussion someone else who had a similar issue, most probably
the user is releasing FT_Face before destructing hb_face_t / hb_font_t.
While that's a client bug, and while we can (and should) use FreeType
refcounting to help avoid that, it happens that we were accessing
the table when we didn't really have to. Avoid that.
Sometimes font designers form half/pref/etc consonant forms
unconditionally and then undo that conditionally. Try to
recover the OT_H classification in those cases.
No test number changes expected.
Normally if you want to, say, conditionally prevent a 'pref', you
would use blocking contextual matching. Some designers instead
form the 'pref' form, then undo it in context. To detect that
we now also remember glyphs that went through MultipleSubst.
In the only place that this is used, Uniscribe seems to only care
about the "last" transformation between Ligature and Multiple
substitions. Ie. if you ligate, expand, and ligate again, it
moves the pref, but if you ligate and expand it doesn't. That's
why we clear the MULTIPLIED bit when setting LIGATED.
Micro-test added. Test: U+0D2F,0D4D,0D30 with font from:

Before we were just relying on the compiler inlining them and not
leaving a trace in our public API. Try to fix. Hopefully not
breaking anyone's build.
Unicode 6.2.0 Section 16.2 / Figure 16.3 says:
"For backward compatibility, between Arabic characters a ZWJ acts just
like the sequence <ZWJ, ZWNJ, ZWJ>, preventing a ligature from forming
instead of requesting the use of a ligature that would not normally be
used. As a result, there is no plain text mechanism for requesting the
use of a ligature in Arabic text."
As such, we flip internal zwj to zwnj flags for GSUB matching, which
means it will block ligation in all features, unless the font
explicitly matches U+200D glyph. This doesn't affect joining behavior.
If there's a mark ligating forward with non-mark, they were
inheriting the GC of the mark and later get advance-zeroed.
Don't do that if there's any non-mark glyph in the ligature.
Sample test: U+1780,U+17D2,U+179F with Kh-Metal-Chrieng.ttf

Bug 58922 - Issue with mark advance zeroing in generic shaper
After the Ngapi hackfest work, we were assuming that fonts
won't use presentation features to choose specific forms
(eg. conjuncts). As such, we were using auto-joiner behavior
for such features. It proved to be troublesome as many fonts
used presentation forms ('pres') for example to form conjuncts,
which need to be disabled when a ZWJ is inserted.
Two examples:
U+0D2F,U+200D,U+0D4D,U+0D2F with kartika.ttf
U+0995,U+09CD,U+200D,U+09B7 with vrinda.ttf
What we do now is to never do magic to ZWJ during GSUB's main input
match for Indic-style shapers. Note that backtrack/lookahead are still
matched liberally, as is GPOS. This seems to be an acceptable
compromise.
As to the bug that initially started this work, that one needs to
be fixed differently:

Not for Arabic, but for Indic-like scripts. ZWJ/ZWNJ have special
meanings in those scripts, so let font lookups take full control.
This undoes the regression caused by automatic-joiners handling
introduced two commits ago.
We only disable automatic joiner handling for the "basic shaping
features" of Indic, Myanmar, and SEAsian shapers. The "presentation
forms" and other features are still applied with automatic-joiner
handling.
This change also changes the test suite failure statistics, such that
a few scripts show more "failures". The most affected is Kannada.
However, upon inspection, we believe that in most, if not all, of the
new failures, we are producing results superior to Uniscribe. Hard to
count those!
Here's an example of what is fixed by the recent joiner-handling
changes:

When matching lookups, be smart about default-ignorable characters.
In particular:
Do nothing specific about ZWNJ, but for the other default-ignorables:
If the lookup in question uses the ignorable character in a sequence,
then match it as we used to do. However, if the sequence match will
fail because the default-ignorable blocked it, try skipping the
ignorable character and continue.
The most immediate thing it means is that if Lam-Alef forms a ligature,
then Lam-ZWJ-Alef will do to. Finally!
One exception: when matching for GPOS, or for backtrack/lookahead of
GSUB, we ignore ZWNJ too. That's the right thing to do.
It certainly is possible to build fonts that this feature will result
in undesirable glyphs, but it's hard to think of a real-world case
that that would happen.
This *does* break Indic shaping right now, since Indic Unicode has
specific rules for what ZWJ/ZWNJ mean, and skipping ZWJ is breaking
those rules. That will be fixed in upcoming commits.
Before, we were zeroing advance width of attached marks for
non-Indic scripts, and not doing it for Indic.
We have now three different behaviors, which seem to better
reflect what Uniscribe is doing:
- For Indic, no explicit zeroing happens whatsoever, which
is the same as before,
- For Myanmar, zero advance width of glyphs marked as marks
*in GDEF*, and do that *before* applying GPOS. This seems
to be what the new Win8 Myanmar shaper does,
- For everything else, zero advance width of glyphs that are
from General_Category=Mn Unicode characters, and do so
before applying GPOS. This seems to be what Uniscribe does
for Latin at least.
With these changes, positioning of all tests matches for Myanmar,
except for the glitch in Uniscribe not applying 'mark'. See preivous
commit.
