patch for Asian fonts for fedora, changing paths to fonts files. Dependencies are necessary to be added to rpms.

[Jiri Vanek]

background is here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=643674 
and https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=582455 and 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=622680

I was speaking with author of cjkuni fonts (and will ensure with autor 
of beakmuk and szma and lohit - but expect same result)and he confiremd 
that in f14 there was big refactoring of fonts (backported to f13 but no 
more deep ). This newly re-factored paths should be "final" (:DD )

Reproducer was created for those fonts (arabic - default ok, chinese, 
japanese, corean and indic) - as Pavel mentioned some time ago.

So my suggestion is to update fontconfig.Fedora.properties to new 
version ant to keep old file as fontconfig.Fedora.12.properties  and 11 
(nothing more we suppotrt (?)..)

This patch is for all except indic (which will come soon)

I think we have to move this, because there are missconfigured paths 
also in rhel 5 and 6 and..there are also complains (Oracle do not 
support those fonts, so i can recommend nothing more then to swap to 
openjdk...)

Except configuration issue there is also issue with dependencies. 
Whether to add them to spec file. I'm for add them into spec file. As 
Deepak mentioned - 40mb of dependencies is not such a big amount in 
today's days.

Regards J.
