Miguel Ángel b7eb0dfb5a fix(lint): mention src: local() for system fonts in font_family_without_font_face (#1859)
Two independent post-release feedback reports of this rule hard-erroring
on OS system fonts (Hiragino Sans, Microsoft YaHei) that have no
downloadable file. Both asked for the same thing, in slightly different
words: a documented way to satisfy the check for a font that's genuinely
OS-bundled, not missing.

That way already exists and already works — extractFontFaceFamilies only
looks at the font-family declaration inside @font-face, never the src
value, so `@font-face { font-family: 'X'; src: local('X'); }` already
passes. One report found this themselves; the other didn't. The gap was
discoverability: the fixHint only described bundling a real font file, so
nobody would think to try `local()` unless they already knew about it.

Considered and rejected a broader fix: adding CJK system-font names to the
shared FONT_ALIAS_MAP (the mechanism that already exempts Latin system
fonts like Segoe UI/Verdana by aliasing them to a bundled fallback font).
That map has no CJK-equivalent bundled font to alias to (only Japanese has
one, noto-sans-jp) — aliasing "Microsoft YaHei" (Simplified Chinese) to a
Japanese font would silently swap in the wrong glyph shapes for shared Han
characters, and would specifically break distributed/Lambda rendering
(where system-font capture is disabled, per system_font_will_alias's own
comment) by removing the warning that currently prompts a real fix. The
local() message fix has none of that risk: it changes no detection logic,
only points at an already-correct existing escape hatch.

Tests: local() font-face no longer flags (proves the advice is accurate,
not just documented); fixHint contains "local(". 308 lint tests pass.
