[requirements][horizon] Requirements freeze exception for XStatic-Font-Awesome
Hello, I would like to request a requirements freeze exception to unpin XStatic-Font-Awesome and bump it from 4.7.0.0 to 6.2.1.2 [1]. This version doesn't use pkg_resources in build. From Horizon side we have worked around the required changes to use newer versions of the font [2], and after the requirements upgrade to 6.2 the hack can be safely removed.

Hello, FFE approved Some background: XStatic-Font-Awesome is only used by Horizon and other UI projects (Venus/Vitrage/Zun) so that should be fine
