* `RESOLVED: Switch to using 25aa`

<details><summary>The full IRC log of that discussion</summary>
&lt;dael> Topic: [css-counter-styles] counter-style square symbol (0x25FE) is bad<br>
&lt;dael> github: https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/6200<br>
&lt;dael> TabAtkins: One of the easy cases we need tor esolve on<br>
&lt;dael> TabAtkins: Count spec says build in square rendes something like 25FE codepoint. Problem is that has emoji presentation. Presents as an emoji rather than a character with text color<br>
&lt;dael> TabAtkins: Also apparently a little larger<br>
&lt;dael> TabAtkins: Suggestion of better character<br>
&lt;dael> TabAtkins: 25aa<br>
&lt;dael> TabAtkins: Switch in spec to 25aa which is not emoji so renders more correct and better size<br>
&lt;dael> TabAtkins: GH treats 25aa as an emoji which is not what borwsers do. Confusing but should be fine in practice.<br>
&lt;dael> Rossen_: Any other ideas of a character? If not, objections?<br>
&lt;dael> RESOLVED: Switch to using 25aa<br>
