LGTM1, I'm happy to see this ship too.

I took a look at all tests with font-variation-settings in the
<https://wpt.fyi/results/?label=master&label=experimental&aligned&q=font-variation-settings>
path,
and see that calc-in-font-variation-settings.html
<https://wpt.fyi/results/css/css-fonts/calc-in-font-variation-settings.html>
is still failing, but the same in all browsers. Can you take a look at this
test before shipping this? If the test is wrong per spec, just updating it
would be great.
