Announcement text:
## v2.8a (2022/01/15) * Add `SwashFont` and `BoldSwashFont` features to support LaTeX's now-builtin `\textsw` and `\swshape` commands, with matching `SwashFeatures` and `BoldSwashFeatures`. A simple implementation that has scope to get more complex if need be. * Remove some legacy code that extended the NFSS in ways that are now handled by LaTeX2e natively. * Long neglected updates through various Github Issues and pull requests. Thanks for your patience with the delays.
