Add [ywq] glyph variant for 16F2F #39

Closed kienwt closed 5 years ago

kienwt commented 5 years ago

This was done for MiaoUnicode but I don't see a corresponding glyph in font-shimenkan. u16F2F.dot.glif has the dot in a different location.

From https://github.com/silnrsi/MiaoUnicode/issues/17 This is the glyph shape: 32499935-eb151c86-c40e-11e7-835e-d0813ee67c1b

According to our spec the .dot forms (including u16F2F.dot) are only in use for [hmdd]. So we'll have to create a new glyph for [ywq] (u16F2F.ywqa), and get the OT working for it. The new substitution can be combined with the Zig-zag Ywq-A ZHA (16F35.ywqa) feature. I've added it to our list to do.

Would require new glyph but no changes to OT code as lookup is based on suffix.
