Bug#859458: Because of displays with very high dpi, not only the keyboard, but the font has to be configured early

[Jmkr <jmkrnet@email.cz>]

Here you go. Both scripts are in the attached "SCRIPTS.txt". Note that on my systems I keep only the one PSF font that I actually use, so my hook script does not need to update cached fonts + my systems are without PLYMOUTH. Check Pedro's scripts if you need to handle those more complex usages.

Regards,
Jmkr
