Research direction

Start by reading pull request 1221 and ICU4X issue 6041 to understand the script extension workaround and the upstream change it depends on. Locate the workaround in the fontc codebase, then remove it once the ICU4X update makes it unnecessary and verify the relevant font compilation behavior.
