As a compromise on PR 39813, document the pkgpaths of the minimum set
of fonts required to run the X server. AIUI we do not want the X server package to depend on these fonts directly. (If this is not the case, or no longer is, they should be added to DEPENDS.)

+
+For the X server to run you need at least some fonts installed. The
+recommended approach is to install the entire modular-xorg-fonts
+meta-package, but failing that the minimum set required is:
+
+ fonts/font-alias
+ fonts/font-misc-misc
+ fonts/font-cursor-misc
+
+This package does *not* depend on these font packages directly as
+in some circumstances installing extra copies from pkgsrc would be
+redundant or possibly harmful.
