Bug Description

See https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/snap-package-cannot-read-fonts-conf/16657/14 for background.

Fonts that need to be substituted, e.g. in Chromium, Firefox, mattermost-desktop, etc., are not correctly identified and resolved, resulting in the display of little boxes instead of the correct characters. Adding `<include ignore_missing="yes">/etc/fonts/conf.d</include>` to a config does resolve this till the next refresh, which overwrites the change.

We are aware of a number of issues related to fonts. I'll relay this to Maciej who was working on the related layer recently. He's off for a week but should be able to have an opinion when he's back.
