[HarfBuzz] Kerning issue with Linux Libertine smallcaps

[Jonathan Kew]

Hi Khaled,

Interestingly, it kerns as expected when using a somewhat older 
LinLibertine release (5.1.3) that I happen to have on hand. But with 
5.3.0, I see the problem as reported.

I haven't yet inspected the fonts to see what changed in the kern 
feature between these versions, but understanding that change might help 
pinpoint what's going wrong.
