This reverts commit d8803873f6d4efbcb227867fe0ac6bca370597bc.
The commit wasn't fully correct as it was not installing properties
for counts in format-switching subtables.
Before, equivalent types, eg. otTables.BacktrackCoverage, etc,
where a subclass of their equivalent parent type, eg. otTables.Coverage
With this change, they are the same type.
The otBase and otConverters changes were needed to make the above
happen and still generate correct XML for SubTable type.

For making sure that `pyftsubset` still works after this change,
I have done the following steps:
* invoked Adobe's `makeotf` tool to build a custom font with a
MultipleSubst lookup. This lookup decomposes two two ligatures,
`c_t` and `f_f_i`, into their respective components.
* invoked the `pyftsubset` tool to produce a subset font with just
the `c_t` ligature;
* checked with `ttx` that the newly produced subset font contains
the requested `c_t` ligature and its components `c` and `t`,
but does not contain not any of `f_f_i`, `f`, or `i`.
Before this change, the XML output for GSUB lookups of type 3
was not deterministic; multiple runs of TTX on the same font
could therefore emit the alternates in a different order.
Since alternate glyphs are sets, this change makes no semantic
difference to the output. However, a deterministic ordering
is needed for tests that compare GSUB tables in TTX format.
I had broken this in e06166b83aa82582dab2e011520b1a77f72aa9f9.
Fix that, and other issues. Since I made that last commit, it has
become clear that SingleSubst works by adding delta and then doing
module 65536.
HarfBuzz was updated for this in 2011:

Fix GSUB lookuptype 1 subtype 1 delta wrapping
The format values for those are automatically handled in
postRead/preWrite to choose optimal format. As such, don't write them
in XML. Reduces noise.

The latter hits the __eq__ method and can fail because we now
do not allow comparing objects of different types.
For example, was failing subsetting Andika-R.ttf.
All types of FeatureParams are correctly handled now.
The only thing not handled is broken fonts generated with the
old AFDKO that have their FeatureParams offset computed wrong.
I don't currently plan on handling those.
