Fedora 21 only applies Adobe Source Han Sans / Noto Sans CJK to Chinese
locale (zh_CN and zh_TW).

Fedora does not use 69-language-selectors-*.conf because they only set
one major font for one locale, and they write the relevant configuration
in the corresponding fontconfig fille for the major font. That is, they
set one font for Serif, Sans-serif, and Monospace (listed below).
However, I don't like this method. Using 69-language-selectors-*.conf is
more flexible here.

Title:
  change default CJK fonts to Noto CJK

Status in fonts-noto package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in language-selector package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  just realize that fonts-noto-cjk is available in the repository, finally its packaged.
  i don't really know about korean community.
  But for Chinese and Japanese community, i think that the answer is clear.
  noto-cjk is definitely better what we had before, like fonts- wqy and fonts-droid.
  Android community had received these complains for years, finally they got them fixed on lollipop.
  Fedora also set it as default chinese font start from F21.
  and of course, i still hope that ubuntu could drop those 69-language-selector fontconfig files, just like what F13 did.
