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"
```
