Drop `python-` prefix since fontmake is not being used as a python library rather as a stand-alone application.

Hi Hilton,
I've corrected the commit message and moved `propagated-inputs' to
`inputs'. Also, 'guix lint' does not issue any more warnings aside form the
version bump.
Regarding your concern for the version bump, its currently not possible to
update to `fontamke@3.6.1', this is blocked by the versions of the dependencies;
for example, the latest versions we have available on the official guix channel
of `python-glyphslib' is 6.0.7 and `fontmake@3.6.1' requires
`python-glyphslib@6.2.5'.
Thanks for your feedback.
Have a good night.

Ah, I see. A newer python-ufolib2 is also required, which requires a
newer python-attrs. I'll look into updating python-attrs.
I'm not sure if an old version will be accepted, so you may have to
wait a bit. ;)

Most of the dependencies here have been propagated by python-glyphslib
and its dependencies. It's sufficient to keeping only
`python-fontmath' and `python-glyphslib'.
But you can also keep them all if you prefer, in which case I'd
suggest replacing `python-fonttools-minimal' with `python-fonttools',
since the latter has been propagated by python-glyphslib.

"@code{.glyphs}, @code{.ufo}, @code{designspace}" and so on.
How about changing "You can use it" to "It can be used" ?

Overall LGTM, except for the version thing.

Good morning Hilton.
Here you have the changes applied. I've reduced the `inputs' field to
`python-fontmath' and `python-glyphslib'. Also, the personal sentence has been
changed to impersonal tense.

I mentioned the description in V2, but you might not notice it.
Synopsis and description use TexInfo format and @code{...} can be seen
as `...` in Markdown, you can run `./pre-inst-env guix show fontmake'
to see if it's displayed correctly.

I have sent a patch to update python-attrs[1], I'll ping you once it's
available in master.

Good morning Hilton,
I had missed the markdown suggestion from V2. Here you have the format
corrected. I will wait for the update of `python-attrs'.
Have a nice day.

Unfortunately there are quite a few test failures to analyze. Would
you be motivated to do so? The end result would be a better package.

Hi, again.
When I submitted the package I thought the checks where passing at least
it was building without errors for version 3.4.0. I see that you are
using another build system and you updated the version. I'm trying your
patch out and I see the failures during the check phase.
At first sight I would not know how to fix any of this. I'm not very
experienced with python in general. If I find the problem I will send an
updated revision.

It's common for the PyPI archives to lack the tests files and/or for the
old build system (python-build-system) to not successfully run the test
suite and report success (which is what happens with 3.4.0 it seems).
So the package was "building" fine, but that doesn't mean much for
Python since it's interpreted -- running the test suite is important.
Often looking at what upstream does in their CI (github workflow for
example) can provide cues. Or sometimes the test may try to access the
network. Or sometimes they embed paths such as '/bin/sh' in the middle
of a file. Or sometimes they need a writeable HOME, etc.
It's sometimes a bit of an effort to get the test suite going, but it's
what gives us confidence that it works well.
