Description

@punchcutter

As noted in https://github.com/googlei18n/noto-fonts/issues/1319 and https://github.com/googlei18n/noto-fonts/issues/1318 the virama ligatures in Grantha should allow marks, but because of USE cluster validation they can't.

To resolve this Grantha virama should have the same HVM classification as Brahmi virama as addressed in #1102

Here are a couple more examples in addition to the above noto-fonts issue

𑌪𑍍𑌰॒𑌘𑌾॒𑌸𑍍𑌯𑌾𑌨𑍍᳴

Note: Noto Grantha will also need updates to the GPOS to position these marks correctly.
