[doc] Type1 GX (sfnt-wrapped Type1) is not supported. 

* docs/formats.txt: Clarify the reference of Type1 GX,
and state that this format is not supported.  This
is because the content `TYP1' table is not exactly same
with the Type1 font format specification; no eexec
encryption is used.  For detail and concrete examples,
see the analysis on:

[6] Supported font formats are TrueType and OpenType fonts as
defined in the OpenType specification 1.6 and newer.
[7] `The Type 1 GX Font Format' (dated 1995-09-27) was distributed in
Apple Developer CD-ROM in those days. The content of `TYP1' table
is a PostScript Type 1 font without the eexec encryption. Current
versions of FreeType don't not support this format, but FontForge
can load it.
