During GSUB, if a ligation happens, subsequence context input matching
matches the new indexing. During GPOS however, the indices never
change. So just go one by one.
Fixes 'dist' positioning with mmrtext.ttf and the following sequence:
U+1014,U+1039,U+1011,U+1014,U+1039,U+1011,U+1014,U+1039,U+1011
Reported by Jonathan Kew.
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:

When a match_func was not set on the matcher_t object (ie. from GPOS),
then the Default_Ignorables (including joiners) were never skipped.
This meant that they were not skipped as they should during GPOS
matching. Fix that.
A few Indic numbers have "regressed": BENGALI and DEVANAGARI went
up from 290 and 58 respectively, but in both cases new results are
superior to Uniscribe, as they apply GPOS when we weren't (and
Uniscribe isn't) before.

Originally we meant to match backtrack/lookahead across syllable
boundaries. But a bug in the code meant that this was NOT done for
backtrack. We "fixed" that in 2c7d0b6b80,
but that broke Myanmar shaping.
We now believe that for Indic-like shapers (which is where syllables are
used), all basic shaping forms should be fully contained within their
syllables, so now we limit backtrack/lookahead matching to the syllable
too. Unbreaks Myanmar.
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, when matching ligatures, we never skipping over base / liga
glyphs even if that was what the LookupFlags asked for.
Fixed now. We carefully reviewed all instances of this, and tested with
Amiri as well as some Indic scripts, and are confident that this should
NOT break anyone's fonts. It's also how Uniscribe does it, from what
we can tell.
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...
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.

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.
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.
Gives me a good 10% speedup for the Devanagari test case. Less so
for less lookup-intensive tests.
For the Devanagari test case, the false positive rate of the GSUB digest
is 4%.
And use it to speed up the hotspot by checking coverage directly in
the main loop, not 10 functions deep in.
Gives me a solid 20% boost with Indic test suite. Less so for less
lookup-intensive scenarios.
Remove the "fast_path" hack from before.
