Change the default Lao language font on Apple OS from Lao Sangam MN to Phetsarath2019

The issue

Lao Sangam MN is an outdated font in Laos, the official Lao government guidelines have stated and opted for the use of Phetsarath OT font.

Besides, the design of the latter font appears closer to that of Lao handwriting style, thus, offering superior aesthetics in graphic design works.
