    Bug 691224 : Remove the long non-functional DISKFONTS feature.
    
    This feature (allowing Type 1 fonts to be loaded into VM without CharStrings
    and individual CharStrings read from the font file on demand) only ever worked
    with very specifically formatted Type 1 fonts (those coming from the also long
    dead and gone bdftops.ps tool). Any significant variation from that format
    would not work.
    
    As we no longer use fonts derived from BDF (and BDF are very much a thing of the
    past!), DISKFONTS has not worked for a *long* time, hence removing it.
    
    In addition, even on printers, memory is no longer quite the issue it was, nor
    are the core Postscript fonts as widely used or relied upon as they were.
