   * The auto-fitter is a complete rewrite of the old auto-hinter.
   * Its main feature is the ability to differentiate between different
   * writing systems and scripts in order to apply specific rules.
   *
   * The code has also been compartmentalized into several entities that
   * should make algorithmic experimentation easier than with the old
   * code.

   * Usually, a font contains more glyphs than can be addressed by its
   * character map.
   *
   * In the PostScript font world, encoding vectors specific to a given
   * task are used to select such glyphs, and these glyphs can be often
   * recognized by having a suffix in its glyph names.  For example, a
   * superscript glyph `A' might be called `A.sup'.  Unfortunately, this
   * naming scheme is not standardized and thus unusable for us.
   *
   * In the OpenType world, a better solution was invented, namely
   * `features', which cleanly separate a character's input encoding from
   * the corresponding glyph's appearance, and which don't use glyph names
   * at all.  For our purposes, and slightly generalized, an OpenType
   * feature is a name of a mapping that maps character codes to
   * non-standard glyph indices (features get used for other things also).
   * For example, the `sups' feature provides superscript glyphs, thus
   * mapping character codes like `A' or `B' to superscript glyph
   * representation forms.  How this mapping happens is completely
   * uninteresting to us.
   *
   * For the auto-hinter, a `coverage' represents all glyphs of an OpenType
   * feature collected in a set (as listed below) that can be hinted
   * together.  To continue the above example, superscript glyphs must not
   * be hinted together with normal glyphs because the blue zones
   * completely differ.
   *
   * Note that FreeType itself doesn't compute coverages; it only provides
   * the glyphs addressable by the default Unicode character map.  Instead,
   * we use the HarfBuzz library (if available), which has many functions
   * exactly for this purpose.
   *
   * AF_COVERAGE_DEFAULT is special: It should cover everything that isn't
   * listed separately (including the glyphs addressable by the character
   * map).  In case HarfBuzz isn't available, it exactly covers the glyphs
   * addressable by the character map.
