[OpenJDK 2D-Dev] RFR: 8146324: Add sun.font.FontUtilities.isComplexCharCode or related method to public API

[Sergey Bylokhov]

Hi, Phil.
Should this new method throw IAE? It seems that NPE can be thrown 
instead, At least other methods in Font.java including the newly added 
createFonts() throw NPE.
