Add fix for emoji fonts, broken in Debian 11 #221

Discussed in https://github.com/orgs/SpiralLinux/discussions/220

Originally posted by **kr428** January 11, 2023 Folks; started sing SpiralLinux a while ago and so far really enjoy what I see. One minor yet somewhat annoying issue however, it seems that somehow emoji fonts are broken. By default, I'm unsure which emoj font is installed, but in most GTK applications, it just shows monochrome emojis with a few dedicated icons (like 🤔) generally missing: ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/685879/211906778-9df4dec9-3ccb-420e-bc8c-3a139a4c7a63.png) On other Linux installs, I use fonts-noto-color-emoji for that purpose, but installing this on Spiral Linux makes things considerably worse - as in none of the GTK emoji selectors displaying _any_ emoji anymore, at all. This is weird. Followed different guides on how to "fix" fontcache to make this work but none of them seemed to achieve anything meaningful. So, asking: Anyone else seen (and ideally) solved this? Any idea where to peek to get rid of that? Thanks in advance and best, Kristian
