2) Other bug fixes

[x] Closes #488 🔪 - Finally made the www ligature have the proper number of ws.
[x] Closes #436 🧟‍♀️ - Extended length of Powerline 'caps' to avoid situations where rounding can prevent overlap. This may cause problems if the caps are used next to one another, but that seems an unlikely scenario given what I've reviewed of Powerline styles.
[x] Closes #521 🤖 - enlarged the size of the grave character to make it more recognizable / legible in code.
[x] Closes #524 ☠️ - Added some more differentiation in stroke, and also created more space using hinting.
[x] Closes #525 🧙‍♂️ - tweaked the braces to be more twisty and create better differentiation from the parens.
[x] Closes #529 🧛‍♀️ - Changed year :P
[x] Closes #546 👹 - ij no longer masquerading as a mark.
[x] Closes #563 🧟‍♂️ - corrected locl feature for proper Serbian rendering
[x] Closes #571 🦹‍♀️ - corrected overshoot
[x] Closes #572 🕷 - ratio symbol added
[x] Closes #577 🍁 - shifted heights of box drawing lines to better align with block glyphs. Will reduce risk of non-joining forms under certain conditions.
