Removed the virama dot substitution tables, implemented instead GPOS solution.

Corrected some ligature tables regarding the kss ligatures -- they look better. The shrii was also working briefly, but now it seems to be broken again.

Not only this, but there are tables to place the virama dot over some letters, but not all combinations. Moreover these are duplicated in two different lookups. This would be better handled in a positioning lookup anyway.

The kss ligatures are generally wrong, showing a virama dot over.

The shrii ligature is not happening.
