Display emoji symbols in mini buffer to indicate language #36

Country flags are not appropriate for some languages in which case we might want to show some other fancy unicode character. Motivation: The current language is difficult to spot in busy mode lines.

As far as I understand, Emacs currently lacks the necessary support for combined glyphs like 🇩🇪 (1F1E9 and 1F1EA unified), but in the future this will likely be possible.

Edit: Combined glyphs and native display of color emoji are supported as of version 28.1.
