Unfortunately, in Unicode some glyphs for Chinese and Japanese use the same
codepoints, but each language wants them to be rendered differently. This
means we have to use a different font for each language.
It's possible to hardcode that in ReadOnlyBootPrompt, and maybe to set the
system font after that. But as I can't check the result (I can't read
Chinese nor Japanese), I'm waiting for someone with better experience of
these languages.
