If pre-base reordering Ra is NOT formed (or formed and then
broken up), we should consider that Ra as base. This is
observable when there's a left matra or dotreph that positions
before base.
Now, it might be that we shouldn't do this if the Ra happend
to form a below form. We can't quite deduce that right now...
Micro test added. Also at:

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.

Sinhala and Telugu use "explicit" reph. That is, the reph is formed by
a Ra,H,ZWJ sequence. Previously, upon detecting this sequence, we were
checking checking whether the 'rphf' feature applies to the first two
glyphs of the sequence. This is how the Microsoft fonts are designed.
However, testing with Noto shows that apparently Uniscribe also forms
the reph if the lookup ligates all three glyphs. So, try both
sequences.
Doesn't affect test results for Sinhala or Telugu.
