Needs more documentation for self-hosted fonts

[mdizo]

I'm a bit new and would love some extra info in how I can use this plugin to use my own fonts instead of the usual Google fonts.

@mdizo The plugin currently only supports self-hosted google fonts. The plugin is designed so that other fonts can be supported. However, due to lack of time and specific requirements, I was not yet able to do this. A PR is welcome 😉

@hupe1980 not sure it's something you guys could do, but it would be good to update the information at https://www.gatsbyjs.com/plugins/gatsby-plugin-webfonts, at least until it is released, since it's mentioned there it supports self-hosting.

agreed. please update docs to reflect that hosting your own font files is not supported

@visualfanatic is currently creating this feature. Here #10 can see the progress.

Is this resolved by #50?
