   *  The auto-fitter is a complete rewrite of the old auto-hinter.
   *  Its main feature is the ability to differentiate between different
   *  scripts in order to apply language-specific rules.
   *
   *  The code has also been compartmentized into several entities that
   *  should make algorithmic experimentation easier than with the old
   *  code.
   *
   *  Finally, we get rid of the Catharon license, since this code is
   *  released under the FreeType one.
