Support multiple font faces in Web IDE

Mark Florian requested to merge web-ide-multiple-fonts-support into master

What does this MR do and why?

Support multiple font faces in Web IDE. In particular, this makes it render the proper italic version of GitLab Mono rather than a faux-italic one.

See gitlab-web-ide!242 (merged).
