[bug#27958] [fonts] Add font-fira-sans

[ng0 <ng0@infotropique.org>]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 665 bytes --]

This is not the canonical upstream source. But the upstream
source bundles many pdf files (one for each variant I assume) and
has a layout which makes it impossible to use our font-build-system.

Mozilla (where the upstream team works with), size: 90.2MiB
Upstream: 96.6MiB

Is it still acceptable for us to use github in this case?

Upstream source is https://carrois.com/typefaces/FiraSans/#!layout=editor
in case anyone wants to take a look.

The appended patch uses the github of mozilla as source.
