As per latest font packaging guideline, i am adding fontconfig files now. Also
want to add some hinting instructions for Liberation Mono.

If it's the common case, maybe good to consider contributing the changes to
fontconfig upstream perhaps.

Those are very specific.
Basically added https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=842568#c3 in conf
for mono.

Just IMHO, it's better when the fontconfig files are shipped with the font
files themselves, and upstreamed font project side. This way the font project
(which is supposed to know its font best) is in charge of fontconfig tweaking

At least, this is how it was done for dejavu.
