Description
## Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
According to the [InvenioRDM documentation](https://inveniordm.docs.cern.ch/install/requirements/), Cairo (e.g. `libcairo2-dev`) and the DejaVu fonts (e.g. `fonts-dejavu`) are required for a local installation.
However, they are not checked by the `invenio-cli check-requirements -d` command.
Because this does not produce immediately obvious errors, it is somewhat easy to miss them.
## Describe the solution you'd like
The `check-requirements` command should check if the fonts and Cairo are installed.
## Describe alternatives you've considered
Because checking for the installation of fonts and libraries is harder than simply checking for executables, the `check-requirements` command could also simply give out a reminder about these requirements (e.g. in yellow text).
