fontconfig-no-bitmaps.patch

Attached `fontconfig-no-bitmaps.patch` changes fontconfig no-bitmap.conf to
default.
Please consider to apply this patch.

In my opinion,
new users to FreeBSD who setup desktop environment
often see bitmap fonts on their web browser.
For example,
Helvetica font is shown by bitmaps on github.com.

They may have negative impression to FreeBSD.
Compares to Ubuntu Linux (that focuses desktop environment),
Ubuntu fontconfig is set up with no-bitmap.conf.

For FreeBSD expert users,
they can customize their fontconfig easily.
Just remove symbolic link.

I hope new users love FreeBSD desktop.
