[Hexchat] Add font rendering patch

Description

[Hexchat] Add font rendering patch

Summary:

  • Added "Use pango_font_metrics_get_height() to calculate font height" patch. Upstream bug.

I did notice an improvement in font rendering with this patch applied while testing the now abandoned D10958, so I think it's deserving of being fixed. Notably chat seems less "smooshed" with a more natural spacing between lines.

Test Plan:

  • Tested that Hexchat opened
  • Checked that IRC was working
  • Checked that font appeared to be rendering acceptably
