Could it be some kind of cache?  Because when Emacs rendered the entire
webpage, I was unable to reproduce the issue.  Then again,
(clear-composition-cache) did not help. and I was also able to
reproduce the issue with Noto Sans Tamil as well.  Anyway, thanks for
looking into this.  I will look into reporting it to the HarfBuzz devs
if you have no further comments.
