[HarfBuzz] Create glyph overview based on a specific font feature

[Behdad Esfahbod]

Hi Rolf,

HarfBuzz has the basic support to construct something like what you describe.
 So if you use C/C++, it's easy to do that.  See hb-ot.h and hb-ot-layout.h.
There's also a command-line tool that comes close, but is not exactly what you
want: hb-ot-shape-closure.
