Allow us to add an emoji font or specify fallback fonts #1780

I was trying out HTTPie on my terminal and after running the hello world example I realized that my font (source code pro) didn't have emojis. I tried to add emojis but quickly realized that meant that I would have to choose an entirely differen't font for everything.

If we can specify multiple fonts or add a font specifically for emojis, I could import something like android emojis while still keeping my preferred font

Starship isn't working properly out-of-the box, either.

@sixtyfive The starship issue I assume is also related to the font deal that the original commit is about? Because I installed starship real quick and it looks alright, just some incorrect glyphs related to the font issue if I use a different font.

@Davidy22 it seems you're right. yesterday, before commenting, I installed the noto emoji font and then closed all guake terminals, opened it back up again and commented when it didn't work. that must have not been good enough. today, with the laptop booted afresh, it's now working. sorry for the hullaballoo!

Alright, so that issue's out of the way, still have the original request to deal with though
