Reduce http requests with one font file handling variations.

"fontFamilies": [
				{
					"fontFamily": "montserrat, sans-serif",
					"name": "Montserrat",
					"slug": "default",
					"fontFace": [
						{
							"fontFamily": "montserrat",
							"fontVariationSettings": "'wght' 400",
							"fontStyle": "normal",
							"fontWeight": "400",
							"src": ["file:./assets/fonts/Montserrat-VariableFont_wght.ttf"]
						},
						{
							"fontFamily": "montserrat",
							"fontVariationSettings": "'wght' 500",
							"fontStyle": "normal",
							"fontWeight": "500",
							"src": ["file:./assets/fonts/Montserrat-VariableFont_wght.ttf"]
						},
						{
							"fontFamily": "montserrat",
							"fontVariationSettings": "'wght' 600",
							"fontStyle": "normal",
							"fontWeight": "600",
							"src": ["file:./assets/fonts/Montserrat-VariableFont_wght.ttf"]
						},
						{
							"fontFamily": "montserrat",
							"fontVariationSettings": "'wght' 400",
							"fontStyle": "italic",
							"fontWeight": "400",
							"src": ["file:./assets/fonts/Montserrat-Italic-VariableFont_wght.ttf"]
						}
					]
				}
			]

To set the font weights :

{
	"settings": {
		"typography": {
			"fontFamilies": [
				{
					"fontFamily": "\"Barlow\", sans-serif",
					"name": "Barlow",
					"slug": "barlow",
					"fontFace" : [
						{
							"fontFamily": "Barlow",
							"fontWeight": "400",
							"src": "file:./assets/fonts/Barlow-Regular-webfont.woff"
						},
						{
							"fontFamily": "Barlow",
							"fontWeight": "500",
							"fontStyle": "normal",
							"src": "file:./assets/fonts/Barlow-Medium-webfont.woff"
						},
						{
							"fontFamily": "Barlow",
							"fontWeight": "700",
							"fontStyle": "normal",
							"src": "file:./assets/fonts/Barlow-Bold-webfont.woff"
						}
					]
				}
			]
		}
	}
}

Note : reduce a variable font to the required variations: fonttools varLib.instancer ./MyAwesomeVariableFont.ttf wdth=drop opsz=drop wght=300:700
