kcms/fonts: warn if trying to use a "Display" font

Nate Graham requested to merge work/ngraham/font-messages into master

Reason for the change

These fonts are not actually intended for use on computer screens, but the word "display" seems to cause people to make the opposite assumption. As a result, there's a constant trickle of bug reports and complaints about weird text when using one of these fonts.

Add a warning in the KCM so people learn the truth.

Test plan

  1. Open the Fonts KCM
  2. Change a font to something with "Display" in the name
