PR summary

This PR is intended to hold all font and text PRs from the project Font and text overhaul

In order to not overwhelm the main repo with the churn of test image replacements, this PR comes from my fork and should only ever have 1 commit more than the text-overhaul branch with the changes to test images.

PR checklist

Glyph indices are specific to each font. It does not make sense to fall
back based on glyph index to another font.

This could only really be populated by calling `FT2Font.set_text`, but
even that was fragile. If a fallback font was used for a character with
the same glyph index as a previous character in the main font, then
these lookups could be overwritten to the fallback instead of the main
font, with a completely different character!

Fortunately, nothing actually uses or requires a fallback through glyph
indices.

Also, if you would like to follow along with the figure changes, I've posted a branch that does the changes per merge commit: https://github.com/QuLogic/matplotlib/tree/text-overhaul-figures-per-commit
