'Has Vertical Metrics' is unflagged when loading an SFD

Hello,

When I was creating a Japanese font, I have found an issue that the 'Has
Vertical Metrics' flag turns unset every time I load the SFD, although
VWidth
property is recorded into each glyph in it.

How to reproduce:
1) Create a new SFD with 'Unicode BMP' encoding.
2) Create a glyph at U+30A8.
3) Check the 'Has Vertical Metrics' flag in the font information dialog.
4) Set vertical advance height of U+30A8 to 800, or whatever except 0 or
1000.
5) Save the SFD and exit from FontForge.
6) Make sure that 'VWidth' is recorded, using 'less', 'vim', or
something with
which you can read a plain text.
7) Open the SFD with FontForge and open the 'General' tab of the font
informa-
tion dialog.
8) Check if the 'Has Vertical Metrics' is checked.

Expected behavior:
'Has Vertical Metrics' checkbox is checked.

Actual behavior:
'Has Vertical Metrics' checkbox is UNCHECKED.

Regards,
MihailJP
