font-patcher: Prevent excessively tall icons in mono fonts

[why]
Very slender and tall icons will be scaled huge compared to their fatter
neighbors. This happens for example to the chess pieces (E25F ff) or
text style icons like italic (EB0D).

[how]
When a monospaced font is created use a slightly less tall cell height
for all icons (except icons that have to match the actual line height).

This can be prevented by the new scale control character `^` that
symbolizes maximized vertical size (height) within the real cell.

The smaller cell (now called icon cell) is less tall than the line
height, but higher than the cap height of the font; to prevent people
complaining that the icons shrunk too much.
It is about 1/3 higher than the cap height compared to the line height.

This is NOT applied to the other Nerd Fonts fonts variants (i.e. Regular
and Propo) because all icons are generally a bit bigger than the cap
height (no scaling down to fit into one advance width) and as the
scaling is far less pronounced the slender-and-tall icons scale
comparably and do not look out off place there.
