[API] Add hb_buffer_add_latin1() This is by no ways to promote non-Unicode encodings. This is an entry point that takes Unicode codepoints that happen to all be the first 256 characters and hence fit in 8bit strings. This is useful eg in Chrome where strings that can fit in 8bit are implemented that way, and this avoids copying into UTF-8 or UTF-16. Perhaps we should rename this to hb_buffer_add_codepoints8(). I'm also curious if anyone would be really interested in hb_buffer_add_codepoints16(). Please discuss!
