With this in place, you can remove GDEF/GSUB/GPOS tables from Arabic
fonts and still get per-component marks positioned on
oh-yeah-fallback-formed LAM-ALEF ligatures with marks in between the LAM
and ALEF.
Now *that*'s pretty cool, if a bit anachronistic...
Uniscribe accepts a Halant,ZWJ before matras. Allow that.

Now that we insert dotted-circle, tests break more easily when our indic
machine breaks.
In particular, a few Devanagari tests were having sequences like
"C,H,ZWJ,N", and because of the ZWJ the Nukta does NOT get reordered to
before the Halant as the grammar used to expect... Fixup.
Another case is as simple as "C,ZWJ,SM".
Fixes 10 out of 79 failures:

Still some regressions, but some of the more egregious cases are
addressed.
The Win7 Tamil font does not realy on this behavior, but the WinXP
version does. Handle Tamil like Malayalam: Matras always move to
before base.
WinXP Tamil failures went down from 168964 (15.4752%) to 167
(0.0152953%) (two orders of magnitude reduction!).
Included in this is a minor fixup that actually fixed a few tests
with non-Tamil too. Numbers at:

Unfortunately if the font has GPOS and 'mark' feature does
not position mark on dotted-circle, our inserted dotted-circle
will not get the mark repositioned to itself. Uniscribe cheats
here.
If there is no GPOS however, the fallback positioning kicks in
and sorts this out.
I'm not willing to address the first case.
No panic, we reeally insert dotted circle when it's absolutely broken.
Fixes most of the dotted-circle cases against Uniscribe. (for Devanagari
fixes 80% of them, for Khmer 70%; the rest look like Uniscribe being
really bogus...)
I had to make a decision. Apparently Uniscribe adds one dotted circle
to each broken character. I tried that, but that goes wrong easily with
split matras. So I made it add only one dotted circle to an entire
broken syllable tail. As in: "if there was a dotted circle here, this
would have formed a correct cluster." That works better for split
stuff, and I like it more.
This will eventually allow us to skip marks, as well as (fallback)
attach marks to ligature components of fallback-shaped Arabic.
That would be pretty cool. I kludged GDEF props in, so mark-skipping
works, but the produced ligature id/components will be cleared later
by substitute_start() et al.
Perhaps using a synthetic table for Arabic fallback shaping was a better
idea. The current approach has way too many layering violations...
Fixes consonant-position with old-spec Malayalam. Uniscribe seem to be
doing this. Fixes below-base La (eg. Pa,H,La) with AnjaliNewLipi.ttf.
Doesn't regress new-spec or other scripts.
This reverts commit 24dd4e5674.
Oops. My bad. The change _regressed_ Malayalam test suite, not
improved it. I'll redo it, differentiating between old-spec and
new-spec cases.
The MS Indic specs say "...all classifications are determined ... using
context-free substitutions." However, testing shows that MS's Malayalam
shapers (both old and new), "match" even if there is no zero-context rule.
We follow.
Fixes below-base La (eg. Pa,H,La) with AnjaliNewLipi.ttf (old spec).
Moreover, test suite Malayalam failures are down to 312 from 875! No
change in other scripts.

The merger of normalizer and glyph-mapping broke shapers that
modified text stream. Unbreak them by adding a new preprocess_text
shaping stage that happens before normalizing/cmap and disallow
setup_mask modification of actual text.
The change is very subtle. If we have a single-char cluster that
decomposes to three or more characters, then try recomposition, in
case the farther mark may compose with the base.
Essentially move the glyph mapping to normalization process.
The effect on Devanagari is small (but observable). Should be more
observable in simple text, like ASCII.
This reverts commit 0981068b75.
I was confused. Even if we access coverage[0] unconditionally, we don't
need bound checks since the array machinary already handles that.
Apparently even that doesn't make check-internal-symbols.sh happy with
mingw32. Going to disable that for DLLs again, but hopefully the
export-file is doing *something*.
'rclt' is "Required Contextual Forms" being proposed by Microsoft.
It's like 'calt', but supposedly always on. We apply 'calt' anyway,
and now apply this too.
At this point, the GDEF glyph synthesis looks pointless. Not that I
have many fonts without GDEF lying around.
As for mark advance zeroing when GPOS not available, that also is being
replaced by proper fallback mark positioning soon.
We need the font for glyph lookup during GSUB pauses in Indic shaper.
Could perhaps be avoided, but at this point, we don't mean to support
separate substitute()/position() entry points (anymore), so there is
no point in not providing the font to GSUB.
