1) Score with notes
2) Select a note
3) Add / Text / Roman Numeral Analysis
4) Type "64"

Result: no fancy stacking of the numbers - this only works after a root. Similarly, a leading hyphen or equals sign won't produce the formatting you'd get after an inversions. This came up on the forum. I've got a fix I'm working on in the font itself also requires a very slight tweak to MuseScore (we need to not strip out a leading "=" from RNA elements, which we do only because this code was inherited from chord symbols which use that internally to force a literal spelling).

_fix #295675: support RNA without root

Most of the rendering for RNA is handled by the Campania font,
so the main part of this change is just including the latest version of that font.
But I also needed to update some of the pre-processing of the RNA elements
to skip the special handling of parentheses and equals sign
(these too are handled directly by Campania)._
