Since Ewald Hew factored the Adobe hinting engine out of the CFF
driver code, we can now use it on Type 1 (and CID) font formats, as
both have the same hinting philosophy.
This change activates the Adobe hinter when in LIGHT mode, and
therefore always unless explicitly asking for the auto-hinter. This
makes LIGHT behavior consistent with CFF fonts. As of this commit,
the hinting engine table looks as follows.
