RFR: 8167268: StandardGlyphVector.getGlyphMetrics creates metrics with erroneous bounds for characters with no outline (e.g., the space character ' ') [v2]

> `GlyphMetrics` objects returned by `StandardGlyphVector.getGlyphMetrics(int)` contain bounds that are calculated by taking the glyph’s visual bounds and normalizing them by subtracting the glyph’s position.
> 
> However, some glyphs (e.g., the glyph for the space character) do not have visual bounds. Their outline is an empty shape. In such a case the bounds in the metrics should not be normalized by the glyph’s position. The code erroneously ignores this special case, thus producing bounds with inconsistent negative x-positions.
