I just found that the Noto Sans Symbols misses the support for standardized
variants (issue 321). Please add a test to noto_lint checking for the support.
The data table is at
http://www.unicode.org/Public/8.0.0/ucd/StandardizedVariants-8.0.0d2.txt.
There are five classes:
1. Emoji/text variation sequences ending in FE0E/FE0F should be ignored for
now. The glyphs will be in different fonts anyway.
2. CJK ones should be ignore for now, since noto_lint doesn't test the CJK
fonts yet.
3. Noto Sans Mongolian and Noto Sans Phags-pa seem to support the standardized
variant sequences through GSUB rules (they follow Microsoft's font, so it works
with HarfBuzz), although I didn't manually check all cases. A test should be
added to check that all the standardized sequences are supported in the fonts.
4. The symbol set is missing (and should probably be implemented in the font
using cmap subtable format 14). A test should be added to check they exist in
the font.
