29.0.50; freetype font drivers reports invalid weight |

Do `M-x set-frame-font RET' on a build using a fontconfig-based font
driver (such as ftcrhb) and hit TAB. There will be many fonts like
this:
-1ASC-Liberation Mono-regular-italic-normal-*-*-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1
-1ASC-Liberation Mono-regular-normal-normal-*-*-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1
Where the weight specification is `regular'. The documentation for the
`weight' spec, however, says:
‘:weight’
Font weight—one of the symbols (from densest to faintest)
‘ultra-bold’, ‘extra-bold’, ‘bold’, ‘semi-bold’, ‘normal’,
‘semi-light’, ‘light’, ‘extra-light’, or ‘ultra-light’. On text
terminals which support variable-brightness text, any weight
greater than normal is displayed as extra bright, and any weight
less than normal is displayed as half-bright.
Which doesn't include `regular' as a valid weight. In Emacs 28, the
same fonts' weight attributes are also simply `normal'.
In GNU Emacs 29.0.50 (build 93, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.24.30,
