Add display swap to Google font #38

The theme could add the &display=swap query argument to improve the performance on the First Meaningful Paint.

I assume simply adding it here would do

On my personal blog https://ricard.blog/ I've overwritten the function in my child theme to use display swap and I went from 3 seconds to 1.7 seconds on First Meaningful Paint, giving it 4 extra points to Google PageSpeed Insights.

Could you consider it?

Thank you in advance
