#16101: Allow using non-system fonts from files with BFont

 BFont can only work with fonts installed into the system (packaged/non-
 packaged). It would be nice to be able to load external fonts from the
 filesystem.

 Use case: private fonts for applications/games not relevant to the rest of
 the system, applications like font previewers/installers.
