OpenMojiBlack displays badly against dark backgrounds

[attso]

Against a black background, most characters are invisible. Even with a lighter background, it's hard to see:

Setting a text color, either in a desktop application or in the browser, only changes some of the strokes:

I would suggest that a monochrome variant where all glyphs are drawn in the text color would be useful (e.g. I'd like to use it as my terminal emoji font, which is typically white text against a black background, but does vary with highlighting).

We are already working on improving openmojis on dark backround #231 #31. But the effort is crazy, this will take more time. In the meantime please check https://github.com/hfg-gmuend/openmoji/tree/master/font#color-font-formats, there is already a monochrome variant.

@b-g the monochrome variant listed on that page is OpenMoji Black, the variant pictured in this issue. It is only monochrome when rendered with a black text color. My suggestion is that it would be preferable if it was rendered as a monochrome font regardless of the color of the text, rather than being rendered with a mix of the font color and black.

231 and #31 refer to the colored variants of OpenMoji and do not, as far as I know, pertain to the OpenMoji Black variant.
