[HarfBuzz] Corner case wrt to repeating Malayalam vowel sign OO

It looks to me like the bug is not that the third one is separate but that
the second one wraps around the first one. I'm not a Malayalam expert, but
if it's anything like the other Indic scripts I know, it's not correct to
have two vowels in a row.

I did a simple Pango test, and Pango renders it the way I described.
