Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-fonts] Specify what generic font family maps to nastaliq (#4397)

@amelia:

> If there is a decision to support a wider array of "generic" stylistic terms, we should probably start talking about using a functional notation (like `style(nastaliq)` or similar). Every new generic keyword risks a compat problem with existing content that used the same keyword as an unquoted font-family name.

The spec [now defines](https://drafts.csswg.org/css-fonts-4/#generic-family-name-syntax) a `generic(ident)` syntax which will be used for newly-introduced, and especially for script-specific, generics. We now have [`generic(fangsong)`](https://drafts.csswg.org/css-fonts-4/#fangsong-def) as the first such example.
