ConTeXt try to compose U+21A6 from base part and the regular right arrow
(U+2192), since that base part seems to be some un-encoded, Latin Modern
specific glyph, you get only U+2192 with XITS.

Ideally, it should be done the other way around, fake U+21A6 in Latin
Modern virtual font and then use the proper code point everywhere (may
be this what is actually done but I misinterpreted it).
