With javatext.ttf, the reodering medial Ra gets its advance width
zero'ed in Uniscribe implementation, and the font adds the advance
back. Our Indic shaper does not do that, but USE does. So, route
Javanese through USE. That's what Microsoft does anyway. Test:
U+A9A5,U+A9BA
This also seems to fix the following sequence, and variations thereof:
U+A99F,U+A9C0,U+A9A2,U+A9BF
Apparently some clients have reference-table callbacks that copy the table.
As such, avoid loading 'glyf' table which is only needed if fallback positioning
happens.

Note that Uniscribe enforces a certain syllable order. We don't.
But with this change, I get all of the tibetan contractions pass
with Microsoft Himalaya font.
Previously we only synthesized GDEF glyph classes if the glyphClassDef
array in GDEF was null. This worked well enough, and is indeed what
OpenType requires: "If the font does not include a GlyphClassDef table,
the client must define and maintain this information when using the
GSUB and GPOS tables." That sentence does not quite make sense since
one needs Unicode properties as well, but is close enough.
However, looks like Arial Unicode as shipped on WinXP, does have GDEF
glyph class array, but defines no classes for Hebrew. This results
in Hebrew marks not getting their widths zeroed. So, with this change,
we synthesize glyph class for any glyph that is not specified in the
GDEF glyph class table. Since, from our point of view, a glyph not
being listed in that table is a font bug, any unwanted consequence of
this change is a font bug :).
Note that we still don't get the same rendering as Uniscribe, since
Uniscribe seems to do fallback positioning as well, even though the
font does have a GPOS table (which does NOT cover Hebrew!). We are
not going to try to match that though.
Test string for Arial Unicode:
U+05E9,U+05B8,U+05C1,U+05DC
Before: [gid1166=3+991|gid1142=0+737|gid5798=0+1434]
After: [gid1166=3+991|gid1142=0+0|gid5798=0+1434]
Uniscribe: [gid1166=3+991|gid1142=0@348,0+0|gid5798=0+1434]
Note that our new output matches what we were generating until July
2014, because the Hebrew shaper used to zero mark advances based on
Unicode, NOT GDEF. That's 9e834e29e0.

The default tar-v7 is not good enough for us (99 char filename
limit), so I have had bumped to tar-pax. We got one complaint
that someone's tar couldn't handle tar-pax. Set to tar-ustar
which is ~13 years earlier than tar-pax and is good enough for us.
