emojibase: Mappings are wrong on Apple platform
I have been redirected here from http://github.com/vector-im/riot-web:
It seems the current mappings break Apple platforms:
For example, :(
is ☹︎, which is not rendered on Apple platforms as an Emoji, while 🙁 is an Emoji.
:D
is rendered as 😁, when it is more commonly rendered as 😀 (not really a breakage, just inconsistency).
Things like 👍 result in 👍️, which is rendered as a thumb up followed by a white box, while 👍 renders correctly.
Basically, look at the entire list on an iOS or Safari on a mac device, and most of them are broken.

Ok, I’m gonna do a retro breaking change on v5, so compact will always use emojis: https://github.com/milesj/emojibase/commit/14d8b9794d88dbfa1e765d1bf6e677654172e540#diff-8128864d03457e2abb445b92204a88feL25
When you update to v5, let me know if this is still an issue.
