Ciaran Gultnieks 12789e473c Force use of monospaced (DroidSansMono) font for terminal
On some Androids (e.g. ColorOS), even though this view is requesting a
monospaced font, it gets given a proportional one. Aside from this being
very silly, it also makes it completely unusable (cursor is positioned
incorrectly, etc)
