Flutter also supports TrueType Collections, (.ttc) which contain multiple tts files. This is commonly seen in CJK font collections that include multiple fonts for multiple languages.

For example, see https://www.google.com/get/noto/help/cjk/ where the truetype downloads are .ttc files.

very minor nit: Move ttc to be next to ttf for better organization

@GaryQian the cookbook doesn't mention .ttc too. Should it also be updated?
