macOS 10.15.7: corrupt display of psautohinted CFF2 font

Open the VF in https://download.gnome.org/sources/cantarell-fonts/0.301/cantarell-fonts-0.301.tar.xz in Fontbook and see that various glyphs like "p" won't display. It works if you leave out the autohinting.

Source repo: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/cantarell-fonts

For testing, you can run (after following the build instructions up to before calling meson):

python scripts/make-variable-font.py src/Cantarell.designspace src/Cantarell.stylespace echo /tmp/Cantarell-VF.otf

for no autohinting, and

python scripts/make-variable-font.py src/Cantarell.designspace src/Cantarell.stylespace psautohint /tmp/Cantarell-VF.otf

for autohinting.
