font/coretext: properly resolve metrics for bitmap-only fonts

Browse Source 
macOS bitmap-only fonts are a poorly documented format, which are often
distributed as `.dfont` or `.dfon` files. They use a 'bhed' table in
place of the usual 'head', but the table format is byte-identical, so
enabling the use of bitmap-only fonts only requires us to properly fetch
this table while calculating metrics.
