Add Noto Sans Lao font
Motivation
The recently merged Lao language (#7952) renders poorly with the default monospace font because it was not designed for Lao script. Noto Sans Lao provides proper glyph support, correct tone mark positioning, and natural spacing for Lao characters — making the typing experience significantly better for Lao users.

Noto Sans Lao is part of Google's Noto font family, specifically designed to support all Unicode characters without tofu (missing glyphs). It is the standard recommended font for Lao script rendering on the web.
