[HarfBuzz] [ANN] luaharfbuzz – Lua bindings for Harfbuzz

I have created a project that provides Lua bindings to Harfbuzz:

https://github.com/deepakjois/luaharfbuzz

It is not complete, but more bindings will be added as and when the need arises.

The primary motivation is to use Harfbuzz with the LuaTeX typesetting
engine. Michal Hoftich has already written some (highly) experimental
code[1], integrating luaharfbuzz with LuaTeX. We are hoping to make it
more robust and comprehensive in the future.

I have questions about some of the more advanced functions in the
Harfbuzz API, which I will send to the list as and when I get to
implementing them. Meanwhile, if anybody has any feedback, please let
me know.

Thanks
Deepak
