This is also what VTT does when one does "Prepare font..." and a character is not present in the character groups template file ("CharGrp.txt"): it gets assigned to the default "AnyGroup" group, or 0.
Note that the TSI1 and TSI3 tables do not raise when a glyph name is in the glyphOrder but is missing in their internal mapping; they instead write an empty entry.
This makes easier to merge TSI* tables from different fonts or from earlier revision of the same font containing only a subset of the glyphs.
In the upstream google/brotli, if the `decompress` function receives an empty byte
string, it returns a brotli.error; whereas in 'brotlipy' it does not raise but
returns an empty string b"":

This test case asserts that when 'totalCompressedSize' in the WOFF2 header is
incorrectly set, the woff2 reader fails -- either because the brotli decoder
raises an exception, or it returns a string whose length is not the one expected.
Fixes https://github.com/behdad/fonttools/issues/314
Previously the warning message was wrong (probably a regression)
as it was reporting the the length of all kern data as "excess".
Fixing that, I see 4 bytes excess in Calibri. Up to 4 is alright,
since many compilers add padding and wrongly add 4 instead of 0
sometimes.
Where more than one run is used, it's only the first run's first point
that is absolute, all other values are relative.
Similar fix landing in FreeType soon. Fixes lizzard glyph (glyphname
"dollar") in Zycon.
A couple of modules were relying on the fact that the 'sys' module was being implicitly imported by 'from py23 import *'.
The 'py23.__all__' does not include 'sys'. I think it's better to always import 'sys' explicitly when needed.
The previous 'allXMaxIsLsb' name was misleading.
The 'allXMinIsLsb' boolean variable cooresponds to the head table's Bit 1.
This is set whenever all glyphs have the bbox.xMin equal to the respective
left sidebearing (and therefore "left sidebearing point at x=0").
Today, Apple has kindly fixed a bug in the [specification of the
meta table](https://developer.apple.com/fonts/TrueType-Reference-Manual/RM06/Chap6meta.html). The existing fonttools implementation matches the
revised specification. Therefore, the comments about fonttools
intentionally deviating from Apple's spec can be removed.
