There is an option in the modus-themes 1.6.0 (emacs-28) that can disable
this behaviour of some faces inheriting from 'fixed-pitch':
'modus-themes-no-mixed-fonts'.

In my upstream repo I have decided to make that opt-in, instead of
opt-out, seeing as it can create surprising results (as in this case).
So the new option is 'modus-themes-mixed-fonts', which is nil by
default.

Do you think this is something that should be patched for the emacs-28
branch?  Otherwise I will sync my changes with 'master' when I release
the next version (maybe in a month from now).
