The patch part 14 uses the glyph_name_to_unicode() function at a different
place, namely for any glyphs, not only composed ones. Patch part 13 was
meant as a preparation for part 14.

But when the input file contains \- and not \(mi
and the output device is devutf8 or devhtml, the \- must somehow be
mapped to Unicode. If you don't want to do it in glyphuni.cpp, then you
need to do it in devutf8/R.proto and devhtml/R.proto. My patch attempted
to unify this as most as possible.
