    VTT crashes while autohinting is applying to one of my fonts

    Thanks @Viktor Rubenko for the report and a test font. VTT autohinter has a heuristic to find nearest attachment points and that seemed to fail for this composite glyph. I made the code more defensive so does not crash in this case but still leaves the code somewhat incomplete for the glyph.

    Thanks for the quick response, as always
