SVG <text> with letter-spacing and unicode IVS|SVS characters, wrong spacing and glyph are shown.

Reported by nory.su...@gmail.com, Nov 4 2016

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/54.0.2840.71 Safari/537.36

Example URL:
https://s.codepen.io/nory/debug/YpKqjm

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Go to https://s.codepen.io/nory/debug/YpKqjm
2. Observe the output.

What is the expected behavior?
SVG/text should be displayed the same as HTML/span.

What went wrong?
When contents of SVG <text> includes Variation Selector and its letter-spacing is not "normal", the Variation Selector is ignored. Normal glyph (not a variation) is shown.
And letter-spacing is wrong.
For IVS, small spacing becomes smaller, large spacing becomes larger.
For SVS, it seems spacing is doubled.

Does it occur on multiple sites: N/A

Is it a problem with a plugin? N/A 

Did this work before? N/A 

Does this work in other browsers? Yes

Chrome version: 54.0.2840.71  Channel: n/a
OS Version: 10.0
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 23.0 r0

IE11 and Edge renders this as expected.
Firefox does not support letter-spacing in SVG.

I suspect that has the same underlying cause as issue 631903, and would probably be fixed by issue 593570.
