Allow to configure default font in IBM ELM applications

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

According to 'https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/engineering-lifecycle-management-suite/lifecycle-management/7.0.3?topic=new-whats' about IBM Plex® typeface: "Fonts from the IBM Plex typeface are introduced as part of the ongoing user experience transformation and alignment with open source Carbon Design system. For example, the IBM Plex Sans font replaces Arial as the base sans-serif font. The IBM Plex typeface is now common across the following applications: RM, ETM, EWM, Rhapsody, ENI, DCC, GC, JTS."

I would like to have a possibility to configure Web UI fonts to either the previous or any other font chosen by JazzAdmin.

    IBM Engineering and other IBM applications are using IBM Carbon Design, see https://carbondesignsystem.com/elements/typography/overview/. Using IBM Plex helps streamline design and ensure consistent user experience.

    As part of the review process, we strive to be transparent about our intentions with each enhancement suggestion. The IBM Engineering team has carefully reviewed this idea, and based on our understanding, it does not fit our plans. IBM Engineering uses the open-source typeface IBM Plex. It has been carefully designed to meet IBM?s needs as a global technology company and reflect IBM?s spirit, beliefs, and design principles. Although we are closing this request, it will be kept in IBM's ideas repository.  We value your feedback and thank you for allowing us to partner with you in developing our products.
