Set-up automated GlyphData XML creation

[kalapi]

High-level idea

Step 1

Take a script-specific .numbers file, generate a .CSV from it, then use it to generate the script-specific GlyphData.xml file.

Step 2

On merging sanctioned pull-request, merge all script-specific GlyphData.xml files into one master file and create release.

Step 3 (but ideally should be an intermediate step)

Check XML file structure integrity in Step 1 and before and after merge in Step 2
