In certain scenarii, text runs may have an initial advance that can have dramatic impact in the way the text is rendered. For instance, rendering the arabic text "مليئ حياةٍ مليئ" currently looks incorrect since the middle word, with double diactrics, is pushed down and does not share the same baseline as the surrounding words. We need to handle the possibility of a non-zero initial advance for such text runs.
