[mpeg-OTspec] Registering new GPOS features?

[Behdad Esfahbod]

OpenType is designed such that fonts can improve these kinds of things
without needing a change to be rolled out to every engine first. We just
need one required feature and all kinds of GSUB/GPOS things can be hung
onto it. The tags should be reserved for features that are either need to
be controlled by shaper, or by user. Everything else should be just one
required feature.
