What's the worst case length of the unicodeRanges list? If it's sorted, can we use binary search instead?

We should check the code size impact of encoding ranges this way. Perhaps encoding ranges as a flat list of <int>[start1, end1, start2, end2, ..., startN, endN] numbers would produce significantly more compact code? I imagine the time difference in initializing the objects would be trivial.
Another thing is, looking at how these ranges are used in NotoFont.contains I wonder if we should actually store it as two flat lists of numbers, rangeStarts and rangeEnds, something like:
final NotoFont notoSans = NotoFont(
rangeStarts: <int>[1, 5, 11],
rangeEnds: <int>[3, 7, 17],
);Then the contains method could binary search rangeStarts and rangeEnds (should be super fast to binary search flat lists of numbers), and if both searches land on the same range index, then we know that the font contains the code unit.

This is more of a roll process, similar to canvaskit_roller.dart or browser_roller.dart, than something part of our normal dev cycle. So I'm not sure if a felt command is needed, but I don't feel strongly about it.
More importantly, let's document it in our README.md. The best place would we next to our existing "Rolling X" sections.

LGTM assuming I'm wrong about the bug in the binary search.

Maybe make it a computeUnicodeRanges() method?

Looks like the while loop never considers the last range (because there's no rangeStart that is greater that codeunit after the last range), so before returning false this might need to check if the last range contains the code unit.
