    Revert "xsettings: Change font hinting to default to 'slight'"
    
    This reverts commit 1d444e1b2bba0102c7e8d94a6dae3014b511f7b0.
    
    This commit broke the string freeze for the stable version, and it was
    commented that this shouldn't be committed to a stable release as it
    might cause regressions in stable distributions.

-      <_description>The type of hinting to use when rendering fonts. Possible values are: "none" for no 
hinting and "slight" for fitting only to the Y-axis like Microsoft's ClearType, DirectWrite and Adobe's 
proprietary font rendering engine. Ignores native hinting within the font, generates hints algorithmically. 
Used on Ubuntu by default. Recommended. The meaning of "medium" and "full" depends on the font format (.ttf, 
.otf, .pfa/.pfb) and the installed version of FreeType. They usually try to fit glyphs to both the X and the 
Y axis (except for .otf: Y-only). This can lead to distortion and/or inconsistent rendering depending on the 
quality of the font, the font format and the state of FreeType's font engines.</_description>
+      <_description>The type of hinting to use when rendering fonts. Possible values are: "none" for no 
hinting, "slight" for basic, "medium" for moderate, and "full" for maximum hinting (may cause distortion of
