Description

[why]
We have only a rather old 3270font: v1.2.23

This new font can be processed with current FontForge without problems. And we have the benefit of an update.

[how]
Because the paths change (Medium->Regular etc) we need to purge the patched-fonts/ directories manually. The automatic purging does work only if at least the paths are kept.

Fixes: #947

This needs a CI release run afterwards to prevent empty in-repo directories for this font patched.
It does not add the (newly) patched fonts in itself.

Something wrong with 3270 letter "small m"?
