This commit introduces the knowledge about whether a font is
scalable or was using bitmap strikes (eg: color emoji bitmaps).
Then that information is used to help figure out whether and
how to scale a glyph.

As explained in the docs included in this commit, ideally this
wouldn't be needed, but due to a long-standing hinting bug in
freetype <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/freetype/freetype/-/issues/761>
it seems most expedient to just render our own block glyphs,
so that's what this does!

This is one of those massive time sinks that I almost regret...
As part of recent changes to dust-off the allsorts shaper, I noticed
that the harfbuzz shaper wasn't shaping as well as the allsorts one.
This commit:
* Adds emoji-test.txt, a text file you can `cat` to see how well
the emoji are shaped and rendered.
* Fixes (or at least, improves) the column width calculation for
combining sequences such as "deaf man" which was previously calculated
at 3 cells in width when it should have just been 2 cells wide, which
resulted in a weird "prismatic" effect during rendering where the
glyph would be rendered with an extra RHS portion of the glyph across
3 cells.
* Improved/simplified the clustering logic used to compute fallbacks.
Previously we could end up with some wonky/disjoint sequence of
undefined glyphs which wouldn't be successfully resolved from a
fallback font. We now make a better effort to consolidate runs of
undefined glyphs for fallback.
* For sequences such as "woman with veil: dark skin tone" that occupy a
single cell, the shaper may return 3 clusters with 3 glyphs in the
case that the font doesn't fully support this grapheme. At render
time we'd just take the last glyph from that sequence and render it,
resulting in eg: a female symbol in this particular case. It is
generally a bit more useful to show the first glyph in the sequence
(eg: person with veil) rather than the gender or skin tone, so the
renderer now checks for this kind of overlapping sequence and renders
only the first glyph from the sequence.
