Adds the v5 elements: elidedfallbackname, axis STAT labels, top-level location labels, variable-fonts with axis-subsets, localised source family names, and instance location labels and localised names. The same structs handle 4.x and 5.x; the only API breakage is new pub fields on existing structs. An axis-subset is modelled as a name plus SubsetValue (Whole, Tent or Discrete), parsed via a raw struct rather than an untagged enum, which quick-xml can't handle. On save, format is bumped to the minimum version the content needs, as fontTools does.
Make the axis-subset range values individually optional, as the spec allows, and fold SubsetValue::Full into Range, per #418 (comment)

This is identical to #418, but I'd merged that into the wrong branch. This merges into main, but shouldn't go in until #419 is merged.
