This is part 1 of 3.  Rendering, screenshots, MathML, and unit tests will
follow in susbequent pull requests.

0dca731da6 Add accents
Summary:
Add support for math-mode accents. This involves a couple changes.
First, in order to correctly position the accents, we must know the kern between
every character and the "skewchar" in that font. To do this, we improve our tfm
parser to run the mini-kern-language and calculate kerns. We then export these
into fontMetrics.js.

Then, we add normal support for accents. In particular, we do some special
handling for supsubs around accents. This involves building the supsub
separately without the accent, and then replacing its base with the built
accent.

Finally, the character in the fonts for the \vec command is a combining unicode
character, so it is shifted to the left, but none of the other characters do
this. We add some special handling for \vec to account for this.

Fixes #7

Test Plan:
 - Make sure tests pass
 - Make sure no huxley screenshots changed, and the new one looks good

e418fd9ee3 Update metrics using TeX metrics instead of TTF metrics
Summary:
Instead of using the metrics from our generated TTF files, use the fonts that
TeX ships with. Pull the mapping out of the MathJax-dev repo from makeFF to get
the correct mapping of metrics to font characters, and use our own tfm reader to
extract metrics out of the tfm files into a useable format. Add a README and
Makefile rule to make this process easier in the future.

Also remove the silly 0.05em we put on supsubs because our italic correction
works now.

Test Plan:
- Run huxley tests, see that changes are because of font metric changes.
- See that the extension piece of `\bigl |` now extends above the top, as it is
  supposed to.
