This patch introduces auxiliary code ranges that identify no-base
characters; they refer to glyphs of a script that should be hinted
without alignments to blue zones (mostly diacritics).
It also splits off ranges for fallback scripts that handle subscript
and superscript characters not covered by OpenType features. For
example, this greatly helps improve the hinting of various phonetic
alphabets, which contain a large amount characters that look like
superscript glyphs.
Finally, code ranges are updated to Unicode 8.0, and enclosed
characters are removed in general since they normally look better if
they stay unhinted.
* src/autofit/afranges.c (af_latn_uniranges): Updated to Unicode
8.0.
Split off superscript-like and subscript-like glyphs into...
(af_latb_uniranges, af_latp_uniranges): ... these two new arrays.
(af_xxxx_nobase_uniranges): New arrays that hold no-base characters
of the corresponding character ranges.
