demo-symbols not working with LMTX

Hi, list.

I was looking for information about fonts in ConTeXt defined using MetaPost
and I found demo-symbols.tex for an Unicode (?) character. However, it
doesn't work. While LMTX just doesn't print the symbol, MkIV complains from
the Lua side. Has something changed?

i'll fix it for mkiv (has to be adapted to lua 5.3+)

the lmtx example usage is like this:

        \showglyphs

         \startTEXpage[offset=10pt]
             \definemetafont[MyDemoA][demo-symbols][at 
10pt]\MyDemoA\char9754
             \definemetafont[MyDemoB][demo-symbols][at 
30pt]\MyDemoB\char9754
         \stopTEXpage

(i'll add it to the test file)
