Summary css text-rendring property breaking utf-8 special chars and switching font-face

`text-rendering` css property is causing some pretty bad issue on Windows Chrome (tested under v25). Some special UTF-8 characters won't render correctly (using the unknown char square) and some text section can change font-face (even from sans-serif to serif). I created a reduced test case here: http://jsbin.com/uqisib/8/edit + First title is the default _Twitter Boostrap_ theme breaking an UTF-8 char + Second use _impact_ font-face to clearly visualize the bug (utf-8 special char not showing and font-face switching) + Third title just remove the text-rendering property to show the visual bug is resolved and is not related directly to the font-face

I am unable to reproduce this bug in Safari 15.6 on macOS 12.5 and from attached test case, I can see that it is rendering 'flower' correctly rather than "block" of unknown character from the reference screenshot. I am going to mark this as "RESOLVED CONFIGURATION CHANGED". NOTE - All other browsers (Firefox Nightly 105 and Chrome Canary 106) also render "flower" character rather than "unknown" character block. Further, I also updated HTTP to HTTPS to ensure that I don't get any console warning about not able to load resources etc.
