STAT table needs Axis Value tables

STAT table has Axis Value tables? Check ID: FontBakeryCheck:com.adobe.fonts/check/stat_has_axis_value_tables According to the OpenType spec, in a variable font, it is strongly recommended that axis value tables be included for every element of typographic subfamily names for all of the named instances defined in the 'fvar' table.

Axis value tables are particularly important for variable fonts, but can also be used in non-variable fonts. When used in non-variable fonts, axis value tables for particular values should be implemented consistently across fonts in the family.

If present, Format 4 Axis Value tables are checked to ensure they have more than one AxisValueRecord (a strong recommendation from the OpenType spec).
