Started modifying the source package as it contains problematic licenses

Browse source 
for the fonts contained in it.
After inspecting the fonts inside the
docs/mysqlx/_themes/sphinx_rtd_theme/static/css/fonts/
using the fontforge tool I have discovered that the font families are licensed
like this:
	* fontawesome: Copyright Dave Gandy 2016. All rights reserved.
	* latto:
	Copyright (c) 2011-2015 by tyPoland Lukasz Dziedzic
	(http://www.typoland.com/) with Reserved Font Name "Lato". Licensed
	under the SIL Open Font License, Version 1.1 (http://scripts.sil.org/OFL)
	* Roboto: Font data copyright Google 2013
This means the fontawesome and Roboto font families are licensed under a
strict copyright which is not supported when packaging fonts in fedora
and since we don't use the fonts during the build process nor do we
package them in the package I have decided to remove them from the
archive and rename the archive to %{name}-%{version}-src-without-fonts.tar.gz
to avoid any possible confusion when packaging this package in the
future. I have also added the generate-modified-sources.sh script that
downloads the original sources from the mysql upstream, unpacks them,
removes the aforementioned fonts and packs the sources under a new name.
