Geist Mono: Coding Ligatures Missing

[rajadain]

Font Name (Geist Sans/Geist Mono):

• Geist Sans
• Geist Mono

Description of the Issue:
Coding ligatures (e.g. ==>, ->) no longer work as of the latest release 1.7.0. This is the case in ghostty and VS Code. They were working until 1.6.0.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Install the latest version of Geist Mono
2. Observe coding ligatures no longer working

Expected Behavior:
Coding ligatures work out of the box. Or there is documentation on how to get them to work.

Screenshots:

Environment (please complete the following information):

• OS: MacOS
• Software: ghostty, VS Code
• Version of the Font: 1.7.0

Additional Context:

This commit seemingly moved the coding ligatures to ss11: 72ff42f. That seems like a big enough change that should have been its own PR, rather than tucked under adding Cyrillic support. There is no documentation on how to add that support, and effectively breaks the font for most users.

Please consider undoing that, or adding prominent documentation in the release notes and readme on how to turn them back on.

Hi @rajadain you are right, that was missing from the release notes, thanks for opening the issue. Coding ligatures are under ss11 now.
