[why]
The font-logos project has been updated including 67 new icons, in which
are included GNU/Linux distributions, desktop environments, window
managers, desktop applications, some organizations and more.
Now the used range is F300-F372, 115 available logos.
After the working draft name Monispace the final patched font name will
be Monaspice.
* It keeps the characteristic `Mona` in the beginning
* It changes just one character
* The replacement is still a real word
* The replacements sounds very similar
Also other very good names have been suggested, thank you all for the
input!

[why]
Monaspace has an RFN that individually protects 'Monaspace' and all the
face names of noble gases 'Xenon' etc. Both must not be used on patched
fonts.
[how]
Just add the rule(s). The concrete naming is not decided yet.

SemiWide and ExtraWide might be nice in some contexts, but that is not
really the audience of Nerd Fonts I guess.
Lets start with few and we can always add more if there is really a
demand.
Simplify the paths; the old style stems from the time when we patched
all variants per source font. Nowerdays the fonts are few (3 per source)
and will almost always be installed together anyhow.
Shorten the naming a bit for, for example

[why]
The Material Design Icons moved codepoints around the Nerd Fonts v3
transition. In the latest v2.x releases both codepoint ranges were
present, and so we had the MD icons with different names and sets and
codepoints in two different i_*.sh files.
Since the old MD codepoints have been dropped the i_material.sh is not
actively used anymore - well, it is used to create the 'marked as
removed' entries in the cheat sheet.
That has not been properly documented here.

[why]
We struggle with the pack-committing of patched fonts to the repository
on release. This makes our repo grow extremely big. It would be better
to just use release artifacts for the releases and not commit any
patched font back.
There were different approaches discussed, but the problem remains that
I personally have no rights to implement anything of that - neither can
I force push to the default branch, nor can I create new repos in the
organization.
[how]
To make it still possible to add new fonts without a repo size
explosion we do not release NEW fonts back to the repository as commits,
but old fonts are handled as before.
NEW fonts:
* have a new property set in the fonts.yaml 'database'
* are released as release artifact via release workflow (but not
committed back)
* get a readme in the patched_fonts/ directory that points to the
release artifact page
The solution is not ideal, but for sure better than not adding any fonts
anymore or having the repo grow in size faster and faster.
At some point in time I would like to phase out all in-repo releases,
also for OLD fonts.
This scheme has been (manually) used / introduced for Intel One.
With this change the .gitignore file is automatically adapted to any new
font that is added with the repoRelease flag set to false (which should
be the default for any added font from now on).

The font has RFN, but we are allowed to use the patched name
"Envy Code R Nerd Font", see PR #1318.

With v3.0.0 we removed some icons and some codepoints have been reused
for a different (expanding) set. We want to show the old (removed) icons
correctly and the new ones also, so we need the old and the new font for
the webpage and reference it accordingly.
For the a new style .nfold (read: nd-olf) is introduced and utilized.

The license of Bitstream Vera requires patched fonts to contain neither
"Bitstream" nor "Vera" in the name. It explicitly requires that also
for fonts that (only) add some glyphs.
Yes, we are rather late to notice this :-( Sorry.
[how]
Rename Bitstream Vera to BitstromWera, and also drop the Sans Mono part
of the name. The new name looks and sounds similar enough to get the
reference, while being shorter and somewhat logical.

[why]
When creating the readmes the config.cfg are checked for details on a
possible RFN renaming. There are specific variables that need to be
filled in these cases: config_rfn and config_rfn_substitue.
The same RFN information is already stored in the fonts.json database.
Having the information stored in two locations is always problematic and
can easily lead to inconsistencies.
[how]
Remove information from config.cfg file and use data stored in
fonts.json instead.
Drop config.cfg files that are empty afterwards.
Also fix some patchedName in fonts.json en passant.

This commit does the actual update of the octicons.ttf font file.
The script to update is 'generate'. It uses the mapping file from the
previous commit to create a new compatible font.
Some icons have meanwhile been dropped. We use their codepoints for new
icons.
Also fix a little bug in the GlyphInfo writer.
Following the output of the actual script run.
