Andika is a lot better than Ruluko quality-wise

It comes with the SIL license

> The user can choose all the system fonts except the symbol ones

> If the license allows it, I wanted to add a dyslexic font

> (https://www.google.com/fonts/specimen/Ruluko) directly in GCompris
> source so they will be available by default for everybody (I don't
> know the easiness to add a font on mobile platforms) .
> 
> They both seem libre, free and opensource but there might by something
> between the lines I don't see...
