LilyPond Serif, LilyPond Sans Serif and Lilypond Monospace are aliases
those are defined by fonts/lilypond-fonts.conf.
fonts/lilpond-fonts.conf is LilyPond's own fontconfig configure file.
For example, LilyPond Serif is defined by this file like following:
```
<alias binding="strong">
<family>LilyPond Serif</family>
<prefer>
<family>Century Schoolbook L</family>
<family>DejaVu Serif</family>
</prefer>
<default>
<family>serif</family>
</default>
</alias>
```
The charactor that is contained in Century Schoolbook L:
The glyph of Century Schoolbook is used.
The charactor that is not contained in Century Schoolbook L,
but is contained in DejaVu Serif:
The glyph of DejaVu Serif is used.
