Fix sluggish display of symbols in UTF-8 language environment
* lisp/international/fontset.el (setup-default-fontset): Make sure Symbola and FreeMono are set up in the default fontset as belonging to the "iso10646-1" registry. In the UTF-8 locale, this avoids a long and futile search for a suitable font, whose side effect is a lot of consing, which then hits the font-cache compacting issue, and causes very sluggish redisplay of characters displayed by these fonts. All this happens because the default for the registry is "iso8859-1". (Bug#24953)
