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:
DEVANAGARI: 707325 out of 707394 tests passed. 69 failed (0.00975411%)
Brings down Khmer failures from 162 to 47.
KHMER: 299077 out of 299124 tests passed. 47 failed (0.0157125%)
Also rebaselined some of the test files that had only-inherited lines.
Removing those, the stats are:

Still some regressions, but some of the more egregious cases are
addressed.
After we implemented dotted-circle, we were still ignoring any tests
that had dottedcircle in it for any of the shapers. That meant that if
we wrongly outputted dottedcircle, the test was being ignored. Ouch!
Fixing that shows regressions across the board. Most are Uniscribe
bugs: NOT inserting dotted-circle when it should. Some are arou
machine bugs. This is in fact a nice way to catch Indic-machine
deficiencies and when I fix the regressions, our clusters should be
much closer to Uniscribe. For now, we regressed from:

Investigating.
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...
