config: implement font fallback
Fonts in the configuration may now be a comma separated list of
fonts (all using the fontconfig format). The first font is the primary
font, and the rest are fallback fonts that will be searched, in order.

# NAME
yambar - configuration file
# DESCRIPTION
A yambar configuration file is a yaml formatted document containing an
associative array named _bar_. You may define other top-level entities
and reference them using anchors.
Besides the normal yaml types, there are a couple of yambar specific
types that are frequently used:
- *font*: this is a comma separated list of fonts in _fontconfig_
format. Example of valid values:
- Font Awesome 5 Brands
- Font Awesome 5 Free:style=solid
- Dina:pixelsize=10:slant=italic
- Dina:pixelsize=10:weight=bold
- *color*: an rgba hexstring; _RRGGBBAA_. Examples:
- ffffffff: white, no transparency
- 000000ff: black, no transparency
- 00ff00ff: green, no transparency
- ff000099: red, semi-transparent
