Protesilaos Stavrou 986273b4de Rebuild Iosevka Comfy
* Upstream now supports inheriting glyph variants, so we do just that.
  Makes the build plans easier to manage.

* After lots of tests, the '@' sign uses a tall three-fold style which
  (i) does not give off a faux bold weight, meaning that it does not
  have more typographic colour than it ought to, (ii) does not look like
  concentric circles at small point sizes the way four-folded variants
  do, (iii) is not too short to the point where it might be mistaken for
  a regular 'a' or simply be hard to discern, the way the Fira-style
  version is, and (iv) has a recognisable shape at all point sizes and
  widths.

* All "wide" builds use an 'm' character with three legs of equal
  length.  Whereas the "narrow" builds have an 'm' with a shorter middle
  leg.  The relevant part from the README:

      Note that the `iosevka-comfy-duo`, `iosevka-comfy-wide`, and
      `iosevka-comfy-wide-fixed` use a different style for the `m`
      character.  Instead of the one with a shorter middle leg, they let
      all legs have the same length.  The short middle leg in `m` that
      we need in the narrow monospaced variants is necessary for
      legibility, especially at small point sizes.  Otherwise it is a
      gimmick, so we remove it in the "wider" builds.

* To keep track of things, this commit marks the release of Iosevka
  Comfy version '0.1.0' (even though the project has been viable for
  close to two years now).

Done using upstream version 'v15.4.2', commit '76a87155'.
