Can't remove icons from emoji display. #40

Hello,

I use Rofi as my application launcher, and for that I like to display the icons. And because of that, the icons seem to be appearing on my rofi-emoji, even though I've disabled it on my config.rasi:

configuration {
    show-icons: true;
    icon-theme: "Papirus";
    display-drun: "Apps:";
    display-emoji: "Emojos:";
    drun-display-format: "{icon} {name}";
    emoji-display-format: "{name}";
    modi: "window,drun,emoji";
}

If I'm doing something wrong, please let me know.

More info: OS: Arch Linux Rofi: 1.7.3

Emojis are not outputted as icons, but as the literal emoji inside the text name.

Like this:

Icon Name
❤️‍🔥 Heart on fire

Not like this:

Icon Name
❤️‍🔥 Heart on fire

I don't think Rofi allows plugins to emit their own icons to entries; it seems to be unique for the application launcher, but even if possible, the emojis are technically text (which is rendered using a colored pictogram from your font), so I couldn't place it in an icon field anyway because it would expect an image file there.
