After about an evening + morning worth of research, we couldn't really find any
concept of this on Mac in either ATSUI or CoreText. It seems to be very
Microsoftian at its core.

The best we could do would be to read the "OS/2 table" present in TrueType
fonts (hoping the font in question is one) and dig the xAvgCharWidth field out
of it. We could fallback to '0' if there's no table present.

Can someone at infinite loop talk to the CoreText team and see if there's a
better way to go about this? It sounds like such a hack. Does anyone think it's
worth pursuing, or would it be rejected outright?
