Description: CMap (Character Map) resources are used to unidirectionally
map character codes, such as a Unicode encoding form, to CIDs
(Characters IDs, meaning glyphs) of a CIDFont resource.

This is an Adobe project that's been bundled in a lot of Linux software: off
the top of my head, poppler (poppler-data) and python-pdfminer (which I have an
open review request for).

The package as it is works, but there are a few things about this one that I'm
not quite sure about:

-Each cmap resources file has a different version attached to it, so I used the
newest version number (1.6). Perhaps the package should be split up, or a
better versioning system used? (Snapshot style)?

-Currently, the only package that's been updated to work with it is my own
pdfminer: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=823679. There are other
packages, such as poppler-data, that require changing to support this one. So
maybe there are %build steps I'll need to add to make it work well with other
packages?
