Motivation for this change

Addresses #98475.

Things done

Backport #93674, as the problem of fontforge lacking python2 bindings also applies to nixos-20.03.

Also I patched monoid with #93674 to make it build again. Afaict this is the only remaining package using python2Packages.fontforge.

  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS linux)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nixpkgs-review --run "nixpkgs-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

Since the latest update, fontforge no longer supports building with Python 2. Let's prevent failing builds.

(cherry picked from commit ce55b09)
Also applied a patch, so we can build with python3Packages.fontforge, as
fontforge doesn't have python2 bindings anymore.
