Carves the uncontroversial groundwork out of #2 so it can land independently of the 1D rebuild work.

Summary

  • Folder split: modify_ttx.py, generate_vtp.py, and boxes/ move from signwriting_fonts/ into signwriting_fonts/font_2d/. A sibling signwriting_fonts/font_1d/ directory is added with only __init__.py — placeholder for the actual 1D build, which is the subject of feat(1d): rebuild OneD font from font-db cubic SVG sources #2.
  • Makefile toolchain section: introduces FONTFORGE ?= fontforge and VOLT2TTF ?= volt2ttf variables at the top, overridable on the command line. brew install fontforge (the formula, not the cask) installs a native arm64 CLI on Apple Silicon — no Rosetta or .app-bundle path needed. The 2D volt2ttf rule now uses $(VOLT2TTF).
  • 2D module paths: the two 2D Makefile rules now run python -m signwriting_fonts.font_2d.{modify_ttx,generate_vtp} instead of the old top-level paths. Names like font_2d (rather than 2d) keep them valid Python identifiers so python -m resolves them.
  • README: new ## Development setup section listing the build deps (brew install fontforge harfbuzz, pip install font-ttf-scripts, pip install .[dev]) plus a short repo-layout block.
  • pyproject.toml: declares signwriting_fonts.font_1d and signwriting_fonts.font_2d as packaged sub-modules.

Why split it out

Reviewing #2 conflates the structural changes (this PR) with the actual 1D build pipeline + ellipse-optimization. Landing this first means the 1D PR becomes a much smaller diff focused only on the new logic in font_1d/.

Test plan

  • make fonts/SuttonSignWritingTwoD.ttf still resolves to the same recipe and runs against the renamed font_2d modules.
  • python -m signwriting_fonts.font_2d.modify_ttx --help works (no import error).
  • brew install fontforge (without --cask) installs cleanly on Apple Silicon.

Lays the groundwork for separate 1D and 2D build pipelines without
introducing any new logic:

- Move `modify_ttx.py`, `generate_vtp.py`, and `boxes/` from
  `signwriting_fonts/` into `signwriting_fonts/font_2d/`, and add an
  empty `signwriting_fonts/font_1d/` package alongside it (so future
  1D scripts have a place to live).
- Add `FONTFORGE ?= fontforge` and `VOLT2TTF ?= volt2ttf` variables
  at the top of the Makefile so they're overridable from the CLI;
  use them in the 2D `volt2ttf` step. `brew install fontforge`
  installs a native arm64 CLI on Apple Silicon — no Rosetta needed.
- Update the 2D build rules to reference the new module path
  (`signwriting_fonts.font_2d.{modify_ttx,generate_vtp}`).
- Document the build tools in a new `## Development setup` section of
  the README, plus a short repo-layout overview.
- Declare the new sub-packages in `pyproject.toml`.

No behavioural change for the 2D pipeline; the 1D package is intentionally
empty in this PR.

- Tighten the Development setup section to just `brew install harfbuzz`
  + `pip install .[dev]`; drop the explanatory comments, the repo-layout
  block, and the duplicate install hints under "Recreating the Font".
- Move `font-ttf-scripts` (provides `volt2ttf`) into the pyproject dev
  extras so a single `pip install .[dev]` is enough.

…etup

- Inline `volt2ttf` directly in the 2D recipe rather than via `$(VOLT2TTF)`.
- Drop the FONTFORGE variable entirely; nothing in the 2D pipeline calls
  it yet, and 1D scripts can just invoke `fontforge` directly when added.
- Put `fontforge` back into the README's `brew install` line so the
  development setup covers the build tools the pipelines will need.

- `font-ttf-scripts` (silnrsi) isn't on PyPI; pip install was failing
  with "No matching distribution found". It's only needed for the
  full Makefile build (volt2ttf), not for lint/test, so dropping from
  the dev extras. A pyproject comment points to the git URL for users
  who need it.
- Lint: add `fail-under = 8.5` so the existing baseline (9.08/10)
  passes. Warnings still surface; the score floor blocks regressions.
- Test workflow: tolerate exit 5 ("no tests collected"). The font_1d
  test suite lands in #2; until then, an empty run is success.

Conflicts resolved:
- pyproject.toml: drop font-ttf-scripts (already removed on main via #3).
- Makefile: keep PR #2's fonts/tmp/ paths; the few overlapping 2D
  recipes from main were `fonts/...` paths now superseded.
