Updated to FreeType 2.7.1, including a new TrueType engine.
The new engine replaces the Infinality engine which was the default in
NixOS. The default font rendering settings are now provided by
fontconfig-penultimate, replacing fontconfig-ultimate; the new defaults
are less invasive and provide rendering that is more consistent with
other systems and hopefully with each font designer's intent. Some
system-wide configuration has been removed from the Fontconfig NixOS
module where user Fontconfig settings are available.
