Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-fonts] incorporate mitigations for font based fingerprinting (#4055)

One additional thoughts: a concern has been raised about the performance impact of downloading fonts; there's an interesting performance impact of JS based font fingerprinting -- it takes time/resources for a fingerprinting script to iterate through fonts to determine what a user has installed (for example [fingerprintjs2](https://github.com/Valve/fingerprintjs2) has searching for an extended list of fonts as an defaulted-off option because of the performance impact of doing so).
