The main shaping loop in Chrome is here:
https://code.google.com/p/chromium/codesearch#chromium/src/third_party/WebKit/Source/platform/fonts/shaping/HarfBuzzShaper.cpp&sq=package:chromium&l=549&rcl=1447771613

The first stage is run segmentation, which we do by
"needs-rotate-for-vertical?",
"needs-uppercasing-for-synthetic-smallcaps", and script in Chrome.
Once you have the segmented runs, we start shaping, and then extract
the results as you described above. One important aspect here is to
ideally perform fallback on a grapheme cluster basis. In Chrome, we
currently do that by using HarfBuzz' cluster values.
