Unreasonable coupling of `macStyle.italic` vs `hhea.caretOffset` value

As discussed in https://github.com/adobe-type-tools/afdko/issues/1095, it seems ots's check of hhea.caretOffset may be a bit overzealous.

I agree, though it is a warning so the font is still accepted (the value is zeroed, but I don’t think browsers use it anyway).

Firefox definitely throws a warning for it, which can feel needlessly stressful if it isn’t actually a problem.
