Add actual characters to available logos table #85

Add actual characters to copy & paste to available logos table in README.md.

To be able to copy and paste the glyphs is certainly a nice addition.

This implementation needs font-logos to be available in the web browser for correct rendering. So people that do not have the font installed see tofu (unknown glyph boxes). This does not look very good.

Either the webpage should include the font (like given in the 'Installation' paragraph). Or make the Codepoint column into Codepoint, click to copy. On click on the codepoint text ("0xf3d1") the webpage copies that unicode onto the clipboard.

As example, on this thing you can select to copy ... whatever, and there are no possible tofu involved: Screenshot from 2022-09-30 08-02-33

I'm not sure either can be implemented just in the README.md file.

And/or one could add instructions how to enter the codepoint with typical OSs, like

On Linux type Ctrl-Shift-u f 3 2 3 Enter.

I don't think it looks bad, but yeah - there's no way of either changing the font or making copy-n-paste in markdown.
