Recommendation is to avoid using the year nomenclature as this
information is already encoded in the git repo. Avoids needing to
repeatly update.
Also updates AUTHORS.txt from current repo with contributor names
Check if the font isn't found when selecting (we seem to always have a
selection even if we fail on GTK) and properly set the index of the
final <not found> font name
There are problems internal to GTK that mean creating choice boxes with

ttf fonts can declare multiple language names. Many by default opt to just declare one and not tag it any particular language.
However, there are CJK languages that typically leverage this function the most. They'll tag both a "en" and a cjk lang family name in CJK characters.
To be as user friendly as possible, we need to display said fonts in the CJK languages if KiCad to set to such a locale.

Especially using a translated name breaks kicad config and files because
in non English languages both translated and not translated names were used in code.
1) Unify metrics between stroke and outline fonts
2) Unify handling of rotation and mirroring
3) Bug fixes in collision handling
4) Use of VECTOR2I (instead of VECTOR2D) for world-coordinates
5) Generate outline font overbar with rounded ends and fix rotation
bugs
6) Generate wxEVT_CHOICE events from FONT_CHOICE::SetFontSelection
7) Change text-item PNS SOLIDs to use compound shapes
