repos is sufficient.

After some discussion, Hans came up with these extensions to the new
reader. We get access to more items from the hideous “name” table. On
the one hand, this means more brokenness to endure and a less sane
matter to work with. But since our tracker was devoid of font-matching
related bug reports for some time, it’s the right move nonetheless.

In addition to the name table junk, the font loader now also includes
the “version” field in the output of “getinfo()”. It’s meaningless per
se, but it sure helps to distinguish historical bugs from the ones that
matter.

**UNTESTED**
