Consider replacing the additional fonts we ship with Noto

Noto fonts (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noto_fonts) is a font that “designed to cover all the scripts encoded in the Unicode standard”. According to Behdad Esfahbod in his talk “Fonts without borders” at GUADEC 2015 it’s ready to use, and the default font in android.

We might want to consider replacing the additional fonts we ship by this one.

It is packaged in debian in fonts-noto, which is available in wheezy-backports, jessie ane unstable. Under unstable, I wasn’t able to find a language in wikipedia that is not displaied with only Debian standard donts and that one installed.
