------------------------
* New glyphs:
- Arabic math letters from Arabic Mathematical Alphabetic Symbols block
(U+1EE00–U+1EEFF).
- Optional support for placing the kasra below the shadda, with “ss05”
feature.
- Missing proportional LTR digits in the slanted font.
* Fixes:
- Reverted the lowering of marks above wide isolated glyphs, it made the marks
look weird relative to other ones.
- Fixed the position of marks above qaf of قح.
- Dropped the special combination in تمخ when it is follow vowelled as
it was too crowded.
- Fixed the position of sukun over shadda.
- Fixed the side bearings of ثر, ثن and sisters so that the dots do not clash
with preceding glyphs.
- Positive kerning between مرين and likes.
- Slight kerning between the period and closing quotes.
- Made sure the italic European digits are really tabular.
