Fonts from custom URL #17

Hi, got a question that I can't even believe myself. I found that according to https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Fonts

Webmasters within Germany have received warning letters from lawyers claiming that loading Google Fonts directly from Google servers was not GDPR compliant.

According to some German sources the webmasters were even asked to pay for the warning letters.

Is there an offline mode with which to load the fonts locally to avoid potential violations of EU GDPR law?

Thanks a lot a man - really love the picker! Cheers Tom

Hi Tom, thanks for opening the issue! What you're asking is currently not possible with this library.

This feature request is similar to https://github.com/samuelmeuli/font-picker/issues/14. There would need to be an option for adding fonts with custom information (including the font URL) to the list.

As always, pull requests are welcome :)
