loadFromUrl does not support Node.js environment

[antoineol]

Here is a PR to solve it: #503 . Please let me know if anything is wrong about it :)

loadFromUrl implementation relies on XHR2, which is only available in the browser. I tried a polyfill, but the available XHR2 polyfill seems to have a bug causing the process to hand for ~120 seconds in some cases.

The PR provides a nodejs implementation to load from a URL.

Expected Behavior

loadFromUrl works in nodejs.

Current Behavior

It fails by default on nodejs (no XHR) and I couldn't find a polyfill working as expected.

Possible Solution

C.f. PR #503

Steps to Reproduce (for bugs)

1. On nodejs, load a font from a URL instead of file system.
2. It fails.

Context

C.f. PR for motivations and context.

@Connum we should probably merge this at some point to get the library working with node versions lower than 18.

I just added a PR on the fork to test this. When @antoineol merges it, @ILOVEPIE can do the review
