When we removed the separate Hangul shaper, the specific normalization
preference of Hangul was lost. Fix that. Also, the Thai shaper was
copied from Hangul, so had the fully-composed normalization behavior,
which was unnecessary. So, fix that too.
The d1d69ec52e change broke Kannada badly,
since it was ligating consonants, pushing matra out, and then ligating
with the matra. Adjust for that. See comments.
If two marks form a ligature, retain their previous lig_id, such that
the mark ligature can attach to ligature components...
Fixes https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=676343
In fact, I noticed that we should not let ligatures form between glyphs
coming from different components of a previous ligature. For example,
if the sequence is: LAM,SHADDA,LAM,FATHA,HEH, the LAM,LAM,HEH form a
ligature, putting SHADDA and FATHA next to eachother. However, it would
be wrong to ligate them. Uniscribe has this bug also.
This commit: a3313e5400 broke MarkMarkPos
when one of the marks itself is a ligature. That regressed 26 Tibetan
tests (up from zero!). Fix that. Tibetan back to zero.
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.
Does not provide Uniscribe-compatible results, but should at least avoid
breaking hb-view due to out-of-order cluster values.
For RTL runs, ensure cluster values are non-increasing (instead of
non-decreasing).

[arabic] Fix Arabic cursive positioning
This was clearly broken in testing. Who knows... Fixes for me.
Test with a Nastaleeq font, or with Arabic Typesetting.
