Describe the bug
On some OS (Linux), emojis are not getting displayed. In the worst case, it even produces graphic artifacts.

To Reproduce
Use a Linux distro.
Open two clients. Send a message with an emoji to one. Enjoy.

Expected behavior
Implement a custom font that is used for all messages so that there is no possibilitzy that an Emoji is not present.

This can actually be fixed without altering Envoy. In fact, this problem is caused by the lack of a font with emoji support on the system.

On Gentoo, I could solve the issue by emerging media-fonts/noto-emoji, but equivalent packages do exist for Debian and other major Linux distributions.

While I consider this a fix, we should list this as a system requirement for users of the Envoy client.
