Description

In at least one case we are generating GDEF version 3 where fontmake is generating version 2, with no other changes.

```
python3 -m ttx_diff 'https://github.com/Afrotype/danfo?a66fc9ded8#sources/Danfo.glyphs'
```

Research direction

Start by running the provided ttx_diff command for the Danfo.glyphs source and inspect the reported GDEF table difference. Compare fontc's generated GDEF version with fontmake's version; done means the outputs agree without other changes.
