python-XStatic-Font-Awesome can go away; I'll sync with Radomir on that

Great!  One less package for me to worry about. :-)

If someone relies on fontawesome-fonts, they should step up. The
question is, how to get out of this, since there were incompatible
changes between major package releases. Three options:

I'm working on option 4: migrate all users to version 6.  I have to
admit that the packages that consume fontawesome through a web
interface (I'm looking at you, freeipa and ipsilon) are proving
somewhat troublesome.  I am not a web developer, nor do I play one on
TV.  I'll muddle through it eventually, but would welcome help from
any actual web developers with (cough, cough) free time.

For FreeIPA I looked at the changes and it looks like we can upgrade it
more or less easily. Please open a ticket at https://pagure.io/freeipa/
and point to your COPR.

We would need to add a variant of our patternfly adaptation
(install/ui/less/patternfly.less) that would use new *.less definitions
for the v6 version. There are few things to handle there because we are
still using patternfly v3 in the current web UI code.

There is also another package you need to look at: while FreeIPA reuses
system fonts, Dogtag PKI embeds fontawesome (and few more) several
times:

# rpm -qf /usr/share/pki/acme/webapps/acme/css/assets/fonts/webfonts/fa-solid-900.woff
dogtag-pki-acme-11.1.0-1.fc36.noarch
# rpm -qf /usr/share/pki/common-ui/fonts/fontawesome-webfont.woff
dogtag-pki-theme-11.1.0-1.fc36.noarch
