Defold: [SUGGESTION] Let us choose code editor font

[horatiohafnaugels]

I understand Source Code Pro is pretty popular on Linux systems, but here on Windows there's a bunch of coders that would rather use Consolas instead. So, let us set the font we want to use in the code editor. No need of fancy dialogs, just a text field like the one we use to set external editor will suffice.

Thanks.

I may add that's not just a matter of taste: on Windows some fonts (like Consolas) have been optimized specifically to work better with OS's font hinting algorithms. This may not be obvious to Mac users, especially if equipped with retina screens, but the ability to set the font on Windows can make the difference between working comfortably or getting eye strain at the end of the day.

Thank you very much.
I look forward to being able to change code editor's font which, if I understand correctly, will come with a later update.

Downloaded and tested 1.2.180 right now. It works.
Thank you again.
