Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing FiraCode ligature definitions and how subsets are generated; the issue names only the desired distinction between obvious and non-obvious ligatures. Done means defining and documenting the subset behavior, including whether ligatures such as := remain while -> and != are disabled, with appropriate validation of the generated font.
