Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-fonts][css-fonts-4] CSS Fonts 4 needs a proper Security and Privacy Considerations section (#4697)

Also [Localized name matching](https://drafts.csswg.org/css-fonts-4/#localized-name-matching) which requires a specific type of caseless string matching (thus avoiding platform differences and local differences in string matching) and requires all localized names to be matched (thus avoiding determining the user's locale by which names match).

This is a recent change, previously the spec mandated that the US locale be the only one used for font name matching. This was a disadvantage for users in non-English locales, but was originally done for consistency and privacy reasons. The new text is better, I think.
