* The patch adds additional dependency on Harfbuzz library and headers.
* Original patch was made for vanilla version of ST from latest master commit.
It is not 100% compatible with Scrollback and Alpha patches, so I made modified
versions that you can apply on top of a Scrollback and/or Alpha patch.
* Due to some limitations in drawing engine, ligatures will break when
crossing colors, font styles or selection. They will still render properly as
separate symbols, just not as ligatures.
+* Since 0.8.4 patch, there's now a way to enable additional font rendering
features. Look into `features` array in `hb.c` for details.
