sway{,bar}: use default font hint style
CAIRO_HINT_STYLE_FULL attempts to maximize contrast at the expense of fidelity, this makes most fonts that haven't been hand hinted, which makes up the majority of fonts out there, appear much worse. In the absence of explicitly set hint style, cairo will default to CAIRO_HINT_STYLE_SLIGHT, which attempts to improve contrast while retaining fidelity to the original shapes, which is what we want.
