convert-UUP.cmd: Consider adding WinPE-FontSupport to winre.wim?

For new Windows Setup (24H2) under WinPE, if no WinPE-FontSupport-langid is added into WinPE.wim (i.e. you used non-CJK language as base version, usually English) but East Asian languages are added into main install.wim, the setup might look like this:

Note the squares in the pictures, which are CJK chars without proper font support. They correspond to CHS, CHT and JPN.
Selecting them will make setup look like this:

This issue is non-existent under older setup, as when no CJK font is added, older Windows Setup only allows you to use English setup UI as is shown below:

This might also be a MS issue.
For installed system, although main system will look normal:

(in which Japanese is made install language and cannot be removed, as if it was installed using a Japanese localized ISO)
the WinRE will also be English-only:

Also websites using this script should raise attention regarding this. Maybe they should consider hosting a list for download sources of "WinPE-FontSupport-langid.cab"s corresponding to Windows version, as they are only included in MS ADK.

That package is indeed added to both winre.wim/boot.wim if Windows ADK winpeaddons is installed

if it's not installed, a manual procedure is performed to add fonts extracted from install.wim
but those are not complete as the package, and they may have changed more structures in 24H2
