Shape of left and right braces is different in v2.304 #668

@philippnurullin braceright and braceleft in v2.304 looked a little odd to me, when compared to each other. In Jetbrains Mono NL. I took at a look at the glyphs, and noticed that they're not constructed the same way. I don't know if this is by design.

Take a look below: image

On the right, in black, the braceleft and braceright side by side.

On the left, braceright is flipped horizontally and super imposed onto braceleft. The light gray line is braceleft, and it doesn't match the curvature of braceright (the drawing with the anchors showing). braceright has the correct updated curvature. braceleft should be modified to match the new curvature of braceright.
