[why]
Because we want to use Node 20 etc pp
[how]
Check for breaking changes and update.
Also replace checkout-files by checkout with sparse-checkout; as they
semselves encourage people to do.
action-gh-release has been updated to Node 20 but has not been released
with the change, so we access the latest version directly by hash.
[note]
Of course this is unchecked... what can ge wrong! 😬

[why]
The font-patcher check workflow fails because the font used for testing
is gone (replaced by differently named one).
[how]
Correct file names.

[why]
Nowadays the Complete font is the normal font. We already dropped the
partially patched fonts long ago. If someone is self patching they will
know if it is a basic font or a complete font.
And already now one can not see if the patched font is bare minimum
(i.e. Seti, Custom, and Devi) or includes Powerline and/or
PowerlineExtra.
[how]
Just drop "Complete" from the naming.
[note]
As the name changes and thus the file name a lot of the other scripts
will break. But they might break anyhow because other naming changes, so
fix that as last commit.

When we crate a font we take the OriginalName, add "Nerd Font" and which
patches we applied, and add "Mono" if --mono has been specified:
OriginalName Nerd Font Complete Mono
OriginalName Nerd Font plus Weather Mono
But the 'Mono' part is quite important, but this scheme will put it in a
place where it is easily out of view or has been removed (to keep the
name short).
This truncation is especially bad on Windows Compatiple and when the
user installs both the 'Nerd Font' and the 'Nerd Font Mono':
SomeVeryLongFontName Nerd Font Complete
SomeVeryLongFontName Nerd Font Complete Mono
become after truncation
SomeVeryLongFontName Nerd Font Comp.ttf
SomeVeryLongFontName Nerd Font Comp.ttf
[how]
Always put the "Mono" directly after "Nerd Font" and all the other name
components come later.

The font is not available on the Github Workflow VM.
[how]
But we have it in the repo anyhow...

We had a bug that font-patcher crashes with fonts with references.
[how]
Just try such a font with all fontforge versions. Just tests if it
patches, the patch result is not checked.

When we rerun (on a release candidate) we end up with an error message:
* Connection #0 to host api.github.com left intact
Tag exists: "v2.3.0-RC"
exists=true
Error: Unable to process file command 'output' successfully.
Error: Invalid format '"v2.3.0-RC"'

[how]
We want to set an output depending on the grep exit code but the grep
output leaks into our value...
Make grep silent.

[why]
We 'manually' patch the font file after `fontforge` created it. This can
go wrong, for example we fail to create a correct new checksum.
Or we fail to patch the correct font property.
[how]
Also build `showttf` from the `fontforge` package and use it to extract
some font properties:
* Check the example patched font file checksum
* Compare the `lowestRecPPEM` of source to patched font file
[note]
`fontforge` set `lowestRecPPEM` always to 8 in generated fonts.
Hack has a value of 6.
