Currently, native fonts are all replaced with a dummy font when loading a capture. We don't attempt to save or load them correctly. This makes captures portable, but the result is always corrupted, since the glyph indices don't match.

It would be useful to save the native fonts, even if only to be replayed locally on the same machine. This way we'd get a matching scene rebuild with the way WR operates in Gecko.

we save the native fonts by their full path now. On macOS, there is no
such thing as a full filesystem path for a CGFont (or at least we don't track it),
so loading a capture falls back to the old logic of using the dummy font.
