 The current Google font collection data is not up-to-date, with the latest
 additions to the list of available fonts and the latest versions of the
 existing ones.

 This ticket is the central ticket for updating Google Fonts in the 7.0
 release.

 From my understanding, the tasks should be performed in the following
 order:

 1. Get a Google Fonts API key.
 2. Clone [https://github.com/WordPress/google-fonts-to-wordpress-
 collection google-fonts-to-wordpress-collection] repo locally, update
 fonts, and submit a PR with the latest fonts. Example of past PRs:
   - https://github.com/WordPress/google-fonts-to-wordpress-
 collection/pull/38
   - https://github.com/WordPress/google-fonts-to-wordpress-
 collection/pull/43
 3. After the PR is merged, submit a meta ticket to have the font list
 hosted. Example of previous meta tickets:
   - https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/7808
   - https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/8099
 4. **WARNING: To avoid priming the w.org CDN with failing requests, do not
 begin this step until after the meta tasks have been completed.**
    After the new font is hosted, update the core code with the new URL.
 Example of past PRs:
   - https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop/pull/6300
