e418fd9ee3 Update metrics using TeX metrics instead of TTF metrics
Summary:
Instead of using the metrics from our generated TTF files, use the fonts that
TeX ships with. Pull the mapping out of the MathJax-dev repo from makeFF to get
the correct mapping of metrics to font characters, and use our own tfm reader to
extract metrics out of the tfm files into a useable format. Add a README and
Makefile rule to make this process easier in the future.

Also remove the silly 0.05em we put on supsubs because our italic correction
works now.

Test Plan:
- Run huxley tests, see that changes are because of font metric changes.
- See that the extension piece of `\bigl |` now extends above the top, as it is
  supposed to.

a75bf1afc2 Add \scriptspace after superscripts and subscripts
Summary: Plain TeX assigns `\scriptspace=0.5pt`, which is used in Rules 18bcd in the TeXbook's Appendix G.

Test Plan:
- Look at `x^{x^{x_{x_{x_{x_x}}}}}\biggr|`, see a gap that looks similar to the one produced by real TeX.
- Look at the huxley tests, see that they look reasonable. Make sure that all changes to other huxley tests are now correct, and only changed because of this.

04f13b9be8 Fix font sizing issues
Summary:
In LaTeX, large delimiters are the same font size as they are at a normal size,
regardless of the actual size. This means that we need to scale up the font size
in the inner nodes, which is annoying because we run into the same problem we
had with \Huge, etc in those nodes. Thus, this fixes both problems at once.

The problem was that when we used our baseline-align-hack and then increased the
font size inside of one of the middle (display: block and height: 0) nodes, the
node with the increased font size would shift downards (misaligning its
baseline). To fix this, we add a method for calculating the maximum font size
used in each of the nodes, and adding a small node with this font size to each
of the other nodes (including the fix-ie node). This shifts all of the nodes
down the same amount, and gets their baselines aligned.

Test Plan:
 - Do dumb things by putting \Huge and \big in places they shouldn't be, and
   make sure they behave responsibly
 - Do the same thing in IE 8, 9, 10, 11, Safari, Firefox, and make sure they all
   behave the same (to some approximation)
 - Make sure the new huxley image looks good, and the images that changed don't
   have significant changes
