Presentation forms #25

This drops the Arabic Presentation Forms as per #22. I had to update the kerning feature file manually as the UFO it is generated from does not seem to be included in the repository.

Yeah, right. This is a chicken-egg style problem, because we have a complicated tool mix. The UFO you are mentioning was generated by GlyphsApp which in turn imported the readily built TTF version of Jomhuria. So, if GlyphsApp can import the kerning properly from the TTF, then we should be fine for the next round of kerning, if there is any. The UFO is not included because it is an intermediate format in this case; there is no point in changing that UFO.

This is a good example for the bad workflows that we face everywhere.
