Enable users to configure their monospace font specifically
This replaces the overly-verbose radio-button font setting (which only allows embedded or autodetected from system) with a simple combobox providing both existing options as well as a custom option to allow the user to select any font of their choice/style.
a follow-up can be to use the selected font wherever monospace fonts are used such as the console.
A separate configuration for that may make sense , but yes, this makes it much simpler to do that. Figured it would be a bit too much for this PR though :)
Concept ACK
This should allow users to select a dyslexic font as well (if they have it installed) - which can be helpful when dealing with numbers.

Rebased
Approach ACK. Tested on Windows 11. Observing kind of jittering of the vertical position of the "Font in the Overview tab:" label when choosing different fonts. Could it be avoided?
I'm guessing it's the preview font changing? How would you suggest avoiding it?
