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.
Micro-test added. Test: U+0D2F,0D4D,0D30 with font from:

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.

[indic] Pass zero-context=false to would_substitute for newer scripts
For scripts without an old/new spec distinction, use zero-context=false.
This changes behavior in Sinhala / Khmer, but doesn't seem to regress.
This will be useful and used in Javanese.
The *intention* was to change zero-context from true to false for scripts that
don't have old-vs-new specs. However, checking the code, looks like we
essentially change zero-context to always be true; ie. we only changed things
for old-spec, and we broke them. That's what causes this bug:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=76705
The root of the bug is here:
/* Use zero-context would_substitute() matching for new-spec of the main
* Indic scripts, but not for old-spec or scripts with one spec only. */
bool zero_context = indic_plan->config->has_old_spec || !indic_plan->is_old_spec;
Note that is_old_spec itself is:
indic_plan->is_old_spec = indic_plan->config->has_old_spec && ((plan->map.chosen_script[0] & 0x000000FF) != '2');
It's easy to show that zero_context is now always true. What we really meant was:
bool zero_context = indic_plan->config->has_old_spec && !indic_plan->is_old_spec;
Ie, "&&" instead of "||". We made this change supposedly to make Javanese
work. But apparently we got it working regardless! So I'm going to fix this
to only change the logic for old-spec and not touch other cases.
This reverts commit d5bd0590ae.
The reasoning behind that logic was flawed and made under
a misunderstanding of the original problem, and caused
regressions as reported by Jonathan Kew in thread titled
"tibetan marks" in Oct 2013. Apparently I have had fixed
the original problem with this commit:
7e08f1258d
So, revert the faulty commit and everything seems to be in good
shape.
For Javanese (pref_len == 1) only reorder if it didn't ligate. That's
sensible, and what the spec says. For other Indic (pref_len > 1)
only reorder if ligated.
Doesn't change any test numbers.
Bug 58714 - Kannada u+0cb0 u+200d u+0ccd u+0c95 u+0cbe does not provide
same results as Windows8
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58714
Test with U+0CB0,U+200D,U+0CCD,U+0C95,U+0CBF and tunga.ttf.
Improves some scripts. Improves Bengali too, but numbers
are up because we produce better results than Uniscribe for some
sequences now.
New numbers:

TELUGU: 970555 out of 970573 tests passed. 18 failed (0.00185457%)
See comments from caveat! Seems to work fine.
This is useful for Javanese which has an atomically encoded pre-base
reordering Ra which should only be reordered if it was substituted
by the pref feature.
For scripts without an old/new spec distinction, use zero-context=false.
This changes behavior in Sinhala / Khmer, but doesn't seem to regress.
This will be useful and used in Javanese.
