Request: Monospace support #435

I could not find a Noto Color Emoji Mono, and the normal Noto Color Emoji isn’t monospace (the emojis have a different width).

Would it be posssible to have such a monospace emoji font? (In my case, I’m both using emojis in my code comments and to do list plain text / markdown files, to visually highlight things, as I am a visual person, … and I want to try using them in a rogue-like game. And I mean the original DOS Rogue. :)

I’m pretty certain that the generation of such a font could be done fully automatically from Noto Color Emoji, by setting new withs based on the widest existing glyph (and possibly using smaller glyphs for a font size, so they fit into the available width). So it would be almost no work.
