After http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/193894, the Mac port can synthesize small-caps even when the font doesn't support it. The Freetype/Harfbuzz backend needs this support. We also need to investigate whether this change caused previously functional tests to start failing.

Unfortunately, font features only work with the complex code path, which means each port has to implement it separately. :(
