This removes a lot of code that was trying to output the matching outer and inner contours in some specific order, but mistakenly combined two contours in the percent glyph in the Bitstream Vera Sans font.

This removes a lot of code that was trying to output the matching
outer and inner contours in some specific order, but mistakenly
combined two contours in the percent glyph in the Bitstream Vera Sans
font (issue #1211).
I don't consider this ready for merging, but the change does appear to fix #1211 for me, and in some brief testing I didn't see it break the rendering of anything else in pdf or ps output. It could use wider testing in other people's setups, especially on a variety of different ttf fonts.
I don't really understand why the code I removed was there to begin with. I think it was @mdboom who added the ttconv code initially, so he might know more about it?
