    Variation Selector U+FE00 added. Works currently for Typst, not (yet) for LuaLaTeX/unicode-math [https://github.com/latex3/unicode-math/issues/661]:
    - mcal (Chancery) variants of mscr (Round hand) capitals can be accessed
    via variation selector U+FE00.
    - U+FE00 may also be used to get variants of "zero" (U+0030), "emptyset"
    (U+2205), some large inequalities (U+2268, U+2269, U+22DA, U+22DB, U+2A8B,
    U+2A8C, U+2272 U+2273), and some subsets (U+228A, U+228B, U+2ACB, U+2ACC).
