Motivation for this change

Fontforge is currently broken on staging. This upgrade seems to fix it. It’s needed by lots of GUI programs because it’s needed to build DejaVu.

Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS linux)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nixpkgs-review --run "nixpkgs-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

This fixes the failing build.

Build system changed to cmake.

fontforge: introduce withGUI option
8a74399 
It was unintuitive that the withGTK option controlled whether a
fontforge GUI was enabled at all, since fontforge supports multiple
GUIs (a GTK one and an X11 one -- confusingly the X11 one still
requires GTK).

With the new withGUI option, it is possible to build the X11 GUI by
setting withGTK to false and withGUI to true.  I haven't added an
attribute for this configuration because I expect it to be pretty
obsure -- my rationale for adding this option was code clarity rather
than utility.
