This is a GlyphsApp extension, (partially) documented [here][1], but it is a
useful one as it allows concise glyph insertion using decomposition
without having to maintain the list of glyphs in two places. E.g.
```fea
@upper = [A-Z];
lookup insert {
sub @upper by @upper connector;
} insert;
feature ccmp {
sub @upper' lookup insert x;
} ccmp;
```
As apposed to:
```fea
@upper = [A-Z];
lookup insert {
sub A by A connector;
sub B by B connector;
sub C by C connector;
sub D by D connector;
sub E by E connector;
sub F by F connector;
sub G by G connector;
sub H by H connector;
sub I by I connector;
sub J by J connector;
sub K by K connector;
sub L by L connector;
sub M by M connector;
sub N by N connector;
sub O by O connector;
sub P by P connector;
sub R by R connector;
sub S by S connector;
sub T by T connector;
sub U by U connector;
sub V by V connector;
sub W by W connector;
sub X by X connector;
sub Y by Y connector;
sub Z by Z connector;
} insert;
feature ccmp {
sub @upper' lookup insert x;
} ccmp;
```

Fixes https://github.com/fonttools/fonttools/issues/2949
- If there are no marked glyphs in an "ignore" statement, issue a
warning. The spec disallows this but makeotf allows it. It is most
likely a typo, so a warning is warranted.
- Mark the first glyph not all the glyphs, this matches makeotf.
- In asFea() always mark the input glyph.
- Udpate the tests.
* Replaced all from ...py23 import * with explicit name imports, or removed completely when possible.
* Replaced tounicode() with tostr()
* Changed all BytesIO ans StringIO imports to from io import ..., replaced all UnicodeIO with StringIO.
* Replaced all unichr() with chr()
* Misc minor tweaks and fixes
Refactors feaLib, moving code which builds OpenType lookups into otlLib. Note that this changes feaLib's concept of `location` from a tuple to an object.
[docs] Document feaLib
* Rearrange docs by user intention, highlighting the things you can do with each component.
* Remove reference to lexer and error modules from documentation tree, since they’re not user-facing.
* I’ve added docstrings to the parser even though we only provide access to the user-facing part of the API in the main documentation, just to clarify what some of the more obscure methods do and provide links to the spec.
* AST *is* user-facing if you’re building your own feature files in code, so all classes are documented with the user in mind.
This allows for more than one "lookup ..." chaining statements at each glyph position in a chaining contextual substitution or positioning rule: e.g.
sub a b c' lookup lookup1 lookup lookup2 d;
The corresponding change in the Adobe OpenType Feature File Specification (and implementation in makeotf) happened in adobe-type-tools/afdko#1132.
The code tries to write the short format when some values as None, but
when writing the long format it would write any None value as is which
is invalid, use 0 for None values instead.
Glyph names matching reserved keywords were not consistently escaped;
they were escaped in GDEF classes but not elsewhere. Call module’s
asFea() function in GlyohName.asFea() to ensure they are consistently
escaped.
When a MarkClassDefinition is inside a block, it gets double indentation
compared to the rest of the block. It should ignore the indent argument
like other similar statements.
ValueRecord had a makeString() method that takes an optional “vertical”
argument, but no code outside the tests sets this argument. Renamed it
to asFea() and dropped the “vertical”, so that it consistent with the
rest of feaLib.ast classes.
