[vim/vim] gVim doesn't see Noto Sans Mono fonts in the TrueType format on MS-Windows (Issue #18256)

[lkintact]

lkintact created an issue (vim/vim#18256)

Steps to reproduce

1. Download any Noto Sans Mono font in the TrueType format from the Noto Dashboard site, for example NotoSansMono-Medium.ttf.
2. Install the font for all users.
3. Run gvim.exe and execute :set guifont=*, a list of available fonts shows up.
   Notice that there's no Noto Sans Mono in the list.

Expected behaviour

The installed font should be in the list.

FWIW, gVim does see OpenType versions of the font.

Version of Vim

9.1.1730

Environment

OS: Windows 10 Home 22H2,
Terminal: GUI.

That font does not set the <isFixedPitch value="1"/> property. Once you set this and recompile the font, gvim sees the font.
