Switch the default egui font to Albert Sans

Browse Source 
Follows the same approach as #8261: replaces Ubuntu-Light with a
variable font hinted via ttfautohint, updates fallback references,
loosens a couple of tests that hard-coded font-specific pixel values,
and regenerates all visual snapshots.

Default fonts that are used in `epaint` and `egui`. Not intended for use as a standalone library.
Made for [`egui`](https://github.com/emilk/egui/).
## Font hinting
`epaint` relies on embedded TrueType hinting instructions for crisp text on low-dpi
screens: skrifa only auto-hints a font that lacks an interpreter program, so a font with
no glyph instructions renders unhinted and blurry.
`Albert Sans` shipped without glyph instructions, so it was hinted with
[`ttfautohint`](https://www.freetype.org/ttfautohint/), which preserves its variable axis:
```sh
ttfautohint --windows-compatibility \
"AlbertSans-VariableFont_wght.ttf" "AlbertSans-VariableFont_wght.ttf"
```
