Use fontdb to load system fonts and pass it to resvg renderer. This adds
a small increase in startup time (around 30ms on my Linux system to
traverse fonts on a cold start). In the future once cosmic-text bumps
their version of fontdb we could clone the Database from
CosmicTextSystem

Release Notes: 
- Added: support for rendering text in SVGs
```
