File for reproducing

To reproduce: 
1. Download the attached html file
2. Double-click to open it in Safari (26.2) or STP (233)
3. Observe that the text is too close to the drop cap (see drop-cap-text-too-close)
4. Reload
5. Observe that the text is shifts and is correctly positioned (see drop-cap-text-correct)

This only occurs with the combination of an imported font (Cinzel Decorative) and the use of shape-outside. If I comment one of these out, the behavior is consistent.

While a reload is one way to get the correct layout, I can also fix the layout by highlighting the O, opening the inspector, setting display to none and then clearing display. So it seems like something is getting an incorrect initial layout, but is eventually resolved.

Observed this in beta of 26.2 and in STP 233. In 26.1 (and earlier), the layout is correct as soon as the file is opened.

Didn't know whether this would be the case when reporting, but the problem is also demonstrated when clicking to view the attached html the *first time*. With subsequent views, the attachment will look correct. To repro after viewing the attachment the first time, you need to quit and restart Safari.
