feat: add SD card font support with on-device download and web management
Add a complete SD card font subsystem that enables users to install and use custom fonts beyond the three built-in families. This combines the back-end firmware support (#1327) with the font configuration, build pipeline, CI distribution, and user-facing management UI (#1392). Core font system: - Custom .cpfont binary format (v4) with multi-style support (regular, bold, italic, bold-italic) packed into a single file per size - On-demand glyph loading from SD card with two-pass prewarm rendering to bulk-read glyphs per page, achieving near-flash performance for Latin text (~697ms vs ~681ms) and viable CJK rendering (~32% slower) - Persistent advance cache for layout measurement without SD I/O - Overflow ring buffer for glyph cache misses during rendering - Memory-conscious design: only advance tables kept in RAM; glyph bitmaps, kern tables, and ligatures loaded on demand from SD Font management: - On-device WiFi download from GitHub Releases with manifest-based discovery, install/update detection, and progress UI - Web interface font upload, listing, and deletion via /fonts page - Manual SD card copy to /fonts/ or /.fonts/ directories - Font selection integrated into Settings > Reader > Font Family Build pipeline: - Declarative YAML config (sd-fonts.yaml) as single source of truth for the 17-family font library (serif, sans, mono, accessibility) - Python converter (fontconvert_sdcard.py) for TTF/OTF to .cpfont with FreeType rasterization, class-based kerning, and ligature extraction - Parallel build orchestrator with variable font instance extraction - CI workflow publishing versioned + stable releases to a dedicated crosspoint-fonts repository with auto-incrementing revision tags - Centralized version constants (cpfont_version.py) shared across build tooling and CI, with firmware headers as manual sync points Additional fixes: - CJK characters no longer get hyphens inserted at line breaks - Advance table eliminates 30+ second stalls during CJK section indexing for paragraphs with >512 unique codepoints Closes #930 Co-authored-by: Zach Nelson <zach@zdnelson.com> Co-authored-by: Justin <itsthisjustin@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: jpirnay <jens@pirnay.com> Co-authored-by: mcrosson <kemonine@kemonine.info>
