Description

For me it defaults to Sans Serif and I have to press space before selecting the text tool to customize font.

Any way to set one default?

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the existing font handling in Flameshot, particularly in src/ConfigHandler.cpp or similar settings files. Look for how other default settings are stored and retrieved. The issue requests a default font; examine the text tool initialization in the UI. Check the issue comments for any maintainer guidance on implementation approach.
