Provides the `fontutil.pc` pkg-config + `fontutil.m4` autotools macros + bdftruncate/ucs2any BDF-conversion scripts. Tiny upstream (autotools, ~200 lines). Same role as arch's `xorg-font-util`, debian's `xfonts-utils`, nixpkgs' `xorg.fontutil`. Extracted from pkgxdev#13103 (x.org/xserver) — xserver's meson.build requires `dependency('fontutil')` for FontPath computation. Both recipes were originally in one PR but pantry's CI resolver can't satisfy a same-PR sibling dep (404 on dist.pkgx.dev/x.org/font-util/), so font-util needs to merge + bottle first. CI on the combined PR has already confirmed this recipe builds green on both linux/x86-64 and linux/aarch64. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>
