    Update FreeType to upstream 2.7.1 plus patches · 90d1657f
    Dominik Röttsches authored
    Update the local FreeType version that is statically linked for
    layout tests to 2.7.1 plus patches, the same version that we use
    on Android.
    
    The FreeType 2.7.x series enable interpreter version 40 of the TrueType
    hinting interpreter, which performs subpixel hinting and results in a
    rendering result more similar to newer Windows versions. It does not
    produce strict, bilevel-style hinting results as before. This leads to
    slightly wider advance widths in many cases for our layout test
    baselines.
    
    This allows us to enable the
    fast/text/variable-fonts/variable-box-font.html
    http/tests/webfont/variable-box-font-arraybuffer.html tests for
    OpenType Font Variations, since this FreeType version has
    sufficient support for it. It will also help us with testing
    color emoji fonts, as well as allowing us to fuse the two
    checkouts for freetype-android and freetype2 in the near future.
