This adds a new
ftConfig
parameter to all compile methods that allows to set fonttools configuration options as defined in (e.g. to turn on/off the serialization of GPOS/GSUB with the harfbuzz repacker):https://github.com/fonttools/fonttools/blob/main/Lib/fontTools/config/__init__.py
since these config options are set on the TTFont instance itself (in its cfg attribute) but ufo2ft creates a new TTFont instance from scratch, this new parameter will allow a client (e.g. fontmake) to specify these options and have ufo2ft configure the newly created TTFont object with them.
