The current package in git does not solve #754926 because upstream does
not pack CJK fonts into tarball when using "make" [0]. We might need to
create tarball for CJK family by our own, or wait for upstream to fix
it.

And due to the size of CJK fonts (total 419M in upstream
third_party/noto_cjk directory), we might need to separate them into the
following packages:

- fonts-noto-jp (*JP*)
- fonts-noto-kr (*KR*)
- fonts-noto-cn (*Hans*)
- fonts-noto-tw (*Hant*)

I can learn CDBS, but I am not in pkg-fonts-devel yet. If anyone
willingly to add me to pkg-fonts-devel, my alioth account is
"czchen-guest".
