Switch from Atkinson Hyperlegible to Red Hat Text

Summarized in this Twitter thread: https://twitter.com/spcanelon/status/1432519491716620291?s=20

A. Hyperlegible has not been tested for accessibility
User testing by The Readibility Group and others shows A. Hyperlegible is not as legible as Verdana, Red Hat Text, BBC Reith Sans, Segoe or SF Pro
Of these, Red Hat Text is free to use
