Fix T75028: Improved Font Names in File Manager

When viewing font files in the File Manager, this patch uses the font's
family and style names to show the same type of string shown to users
in operating system lists. For example "Book Antiqua Regular" instead
of "BKANT.ttf"

see D12020 for details and examples.
