Too much horizontal spacing to the right of some flats (vs. LilyPond) #4

This problem applies no matter which font is used with ekmelily.

Sample with ekmelily:

Sample with native LP:

Where there is a flat which is followed to the right by another accidental, then the space between them should be reduced if the right-side accidental is at least 1.5 staff-lines above the left-side flat, provided that the right-side accidental is not one of those which would collide with the flat (different intervals might need to be set for those with a left-side arrow, for instance)

Addendum The same is also true of naturals, etc., depending on the circumstances

It seems we restore LilyPond's positioning of accidentals when we just comment out the following two lines in ekmel-main.ily.:

\override Accidental.horizontal-skylines = #'()
\override Accidental.vertical-skylines = #'()
