The slice Foos is plural; it refers to multiple elements. The element Foos[i]
is the i'th Foo.

The previous "the endpoints are inclusive" comment seems confusing. It's true
that the bounding box's max X equals the right-most coordinate, which suggests
<= instead of <, but that node's coordinate is itself exclusive. Consider the
solid 1-pixel square: (0, 0), (64, 0), (64, 64), (0, 64) in fixed.Point26_6
coordinates. The right-most coordinate is 64, and the bounding box's max X
equals 64, but rasterizing that square only affects sub-pixels up to but not
including 64.

Instead, it seems accurate to follow the fixed.Rectangle26_6 description, in
that the max values are exclusive.

The zero value of a GlyphBuf is already perfectly usable.

hide the Hinter implementation in the freetype/truetype package.

The logic is a little clunky, but as before, let's get it right first,
then get it clean once we have a full battery of tests.

The very subtle pp1x versus phantomPoints[0].X distinction is pretty
ugly code, but let's get all the tests passing first, so that we can
refactor with confidence.

Successfully hint all of DejaVu Sans Oblique, barring 4 exceptions
that are errors in the upstream C Freetype project. See

for details.

Also make phantom point delta-X adjustment.

Also make print-glyph-points require Freetype version >= 2.5, which is
the latest version, at the time of writing.

Also increase the maximum recursion depth from 4 to 8, since some
x-deja-vu-sans-oblique glyphs are actually depth 4. It's an arbitrary
limit. The C Freetype code doesn't seem to limit recursion (below
whatever the font says it needs), but it seems safer to have a limit.

Yes, it's a mess, but let's pass the tests first, and then refactor.

the C freetype implementation.

These new opcodes aren't unit-tested per se, but they will be
exercised by an end-to-end hinting test of the Luxi fonts.
