Improved Charis SIL with smallcaps

Vakke and I have updated Charis SIL. The updated fonts are attached here.

These are based on the version 6 of Charis SIL. They've been renamed ChareInk6. They have had kerning added and one version has added weight for use with eInk screens that do not have the ability to add weight such as Pocketbook and Sony Reader. There is also a version with no added weight so you can add your own weight or use with LCD screens. And there is yet another version with a smaller space which in some cases does look better. And finally, the line height metrics have been adjusted to work well with ePub and with Kindles (KF8).

ChareInk6SP is the version with the smaller space. It's the font i use.

Added in is ChareInk7SP based on Charis SIL version 7. If you find any issues, please post about it.

P.S. A mistake in the metadata of the italic version has been fixed. Thanks to DNSB for catching this. One other fix is the non-breaking space is now the same size as the reduced space.
