This is completely broken currently. There is no longer a mapping
from glyph to scripts but from glyphs to `styles' of the form
`xxxx_yyyy', where `xxxx' gives the script and `yyyy' an OpenType
feature.
I think that the property should be renamed to `glyph-to-style-map',
but I think it's actually better to remove it completely: This
property predates the inclusion of HarfBuzz, and today there's
actually hardly a need to ever modify this mapping.
