I still don't know how to reproduce it properly, but I'm slowly
wrapping my head around how and why it happens. The issue isn't that
FindFamilyName fails with exists=FALSE, but rather that any of the
followup calls like GetDesignGlyphMetrics fails, which results in an
exception and subsequently in an orderly fallback to Consolas.
I've always thought that the issue is that even with the nearby font
collection we get an exists=FALSE... I'm not sure why I thought that.

This changeset also drops the fallback iteration for Lucida Console and
Courier New, because I felt like the code looks neater that way and I
think it's a reasonable expectation that Consolas is always installed.

Closes #16058

On Desktop, yes. OneCoreUAP is different, but... we don't talk about that.

I can't see where we handle fallback at all now (?)
