fc-match -v "Times New Roman"

Description of problem:
Archaic "Berling Antiqua" has an alternative name field of "Times New Roman". I
guess here that there's arguably no bug seeing as the font *does* name itself
Times New Roman in one of its name fields, but it is a real nuisance as it gets
preferred above e.g. Liberation Serif if you have the misfortune to install it

How reproducible:
100%

Actual results:
fc-match "Times New Roman"
berling.ttf: "Times New Roman" "Normal"

Expected results:
Ideally we could somehow blacklist/scrub the "Times New Roman" name from
"Berling Antiqua"
