Add support for compilable fonts from Styles panel as well as local and native fonts about gantry5 HOT 5 CLOSED

Like said in #10 we are planning to add support in hydrogen for the font picker. It didn't make it through beta1.
Your implementation is almost right but you are missing a few bits. Because it's remote you need the url() and because it's Google fonts you need the pretending google fonts url

Sorry phone submitted before I was done :)
url(http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?$header-font)

Something along those lines.

Thanks for the input.

We discussed the font picker and know it isn't completed but I think we have a good plan now.
In short, we are going to add support for local fonts as well as google fonts so the font picker field itself could be populated similar to the way you write it in CSS.

As font stack: "Helvetica", "Times New Roman", sans-serif
As google: family=Ubuntu...
As single font: Helvetica

You will be able to define local fonts from the theme.yaml in a key value definition that sort of looks like roboto: 'gantry-theme://fonts/roboto_regular_macroman/Roboto-Regular-webfont' and if you wanted to use it you would just reference roboto in the field.

This is the plan, it's going to take a bit of time to get it all together but at least you get the idea :)
