Description
we currently only set the global metrics for horizontal layout. We should add support for vertical layout fonts by building a `vhea` table, and also store the corresponding variable global vertical metrics tag in the `MVAR` table (e.g. vertical ascender, descender, line gap, vertical caret slope).
A `VORG` table is only needed for CFF and we currently only build TrueType-flavored variable fonts.
