[why] Keeping the ligature removal tables up to date with source font updates is quite a maintenance burden. Usually if a terminal supports ligatures at all it has an option to disable them. Present ligatures do not prevent monospaced fonts and monospaced detection. It was only present in v2.0.0, and the code has been broken with v2.1.0. [note] Updated example ligature removal table to the one for Iosevka. Left stubs in relevant code passages to facilitate finding this commit.
