What is the purpose of this font?

The purpose is to write really small text. Personally I mainly use really small font sizes in pixel-art(I know Pixel Paint does not have an "Insert text" tool yet). But I'm sure there is a lot of other uses.

The font is mainly decorative because it is really hard to read. Honestly, I really like tiny fonts and I thought it was missing from SerenityOS. But I stopped at ~150 glyphs to see if it gets merged or not. :)

The glyphs is mostly in the ranges of symbols, geometric shapes,
emoticons and latin extended. The font name changed from "Tiny"
to "Tiny Regular" to follow the established naming convention.

I tried. I messed up. Felt better to close the PR then wasting resources for all the checks. Is it acceptable to create a clean new pull request?

(obviously I'm much better at spending hours drawing glyphs based on the Unicode character code charts then GIT)
