fonts: Add FontIdentifier and LocalFontIdentifier (#31658)

Instead of using a simple `Atom` to identify a local font, use a data
structure. This allows us to carry more information necessary to
identify a local font (such as a path on MacOS). We need this for the
new version of WebRender, as fonts on MacOS now require a path.

This has a lot of benefits:
 1. We can avoid loading fonts without paths on MacOS, which should
    avoid a lot of problems with flakiness and ensure we always load the
    same font for a given identifier.
 2. This clarifies the difference between web fonts and local fonts,
    though there is more work to do here.
 3. This avoid a *lot* of font shenanigans, such as trying to work
    backwards from the name of the font to the path of the font we
    actually matched. In general, we can remove a lot of code trying to
    accomplish these shenanigans.
 4. Getting the font bytes always returns an `Arc` now avoiding an extra
    full font copy in the case of Canvas.
