Korean Windows font names are resolved to NanumGothic

Project Member Reported by yusukes@chromium.org, May 12 2017

Issue description

Version: Chrome OS R60

In /etc/fonts/local.conf, Windows Korean font names are still resolved to NanumGothic.

  <!-- Aliases for Korean Windows fonts.
       TODO(jungshik): Shuld we get NanumGothic/Myeongjo aliased to
       Windows fonts with binding=same as is done for IPA fonts to
       Windows Japanese fonts?
  -->
  <alias>
    <family>Gulim</family>
    <accept>
      <family>NanumGothic</family>
    </accept>
  </alias>
  ...

Can we change this to Noto Sans CJK KR? Since the preferred sans-serif font for Korean UI is already Noto Sans CJK KR, the alias settings above seem inconsistent/outdated.

  <!-- Preferred fonts for Korean -->
  ...
  <match target="pattern">
    <test name="lang" compare="contains">
      <string>ko</string>
    </test>
    <test name="family">
      <string>sans-serif</string>
    </test>
    <edit name="family" mode="prepend" binding="strong">
      <string>Noto Sans CJK KR</string>
    </edit>
  </match>

I think I map Dotum (another Windows Korean sans-serif font) to Noto Sans CJK KR.
 
Mapping Gulim to NanumGothic is intentional because Gulim is 'round-gothic' and so is NanumGothic in a sense. 

Let me check.
