Remove Piece from Italic Character Latin Small Letter a with Ring Above: U+00E5 aring (å) #262

The correct shape above the "a" is a plain circle. Just like it appears in the normal version of the typeface (not italic).

Please make it look like any other sans-serif (or serif) "å". Just a plain ring above is the normal shape.

It can be tested here: https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Public+Sans?preview.text=%C3%85%C3%84%C3%96%C3%A5%C3%A4%C3%B6&preview.text_type=custom Screen Shot 2022-10-21 at 15 36 45

Just to add to this in case it’s helpful, the erroneous glyph ("Latin small letter a with ring above", unicode 00E5, GID 217) seems to be exactly the same as "Latin small letter a with ring above and acute", unicode 01FB, GID 218.

It is present in every weight of the italic.
