Subject: [PATCH] gnu: fontconfig: Find fonts in the system profile.

Fixes <http://bugs.gnu.org/22927>.

This also reverts commit e71ef7adaece7e132a5059139122b45083ea1b39.

* gnu/packages/fontutils.scm (fontconfig)[arguments]: Add
/run/current-system/profile/share/fonts to --with-add-fonts configure flag.
* gnu/system/shadow.scm (default-skeletons): Do not create "fonts.conf" file.
