Subject: Remove build dependency on Fontforge

The required version of fontforge (from 2020!) is not available in many
distros. This is an annoying for contributors and greatly complicated
the CI and F-Droid scripts.

The generated font file is now included in the sources. Fontforge is
still needed when adding new glyphs but this is not a common operation.
