I've just committed fixes.  Please try the latest code.

With David CLM font, just font-shape-gstring work well.  But
with Dejavu Sans font, as it lacks several OTF capabilities,
we have to adjust the result of font-shape-gstring.  For
that, I implemented hebrew-shape-gstring.  So now Emacs
should be able to use both fonts.

I have not yet adopted your code for setting up
composition-function-table.  It requires some modifications.
For instance, we should register hebrew-shape-gstring only
for combining characters for fast displaying of a Hebrew
text that doesn't have diacriticals.
