ast: Interrogate and generate OpenType feature files

.. rubric:: Overview:
:heading-level: 2
feaLib's :mod:`.ast` module provides classes that represent the objects
and structures used to define OpenType feature lookups in the ``fea``
syntax. After your code has parsed a ``.fea`` file into an abstract
syntax tree (AST), you can use these classes to modify existing
lookups or create new lookups and features.
The root of the AST representation of a parsed ``.fea`` file is a
:class:`fontTools.feaLib.ast.FeatureFile` object. You can walk the
tree by examining its :attr:`statements` attribute. Nodes in the
tree have an :meth:`asFea` method that will return a ``.fea``
formated string representation, including correct indentation of block elements.

In the below, a **glyph-containing object** is an object of one of the following
classes: :class:`GlyphName`, :class:`GlyphClass`, :class:`GlyphClassName`.
