Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-fonts] Clarification font-variant-emoji should not affect characters `0-9#*` (#11014)

> Yes, if an emoji upgrade is not intended or desired, `font-variant-emoji:` still has values `unicode` and `normal` and I think the value `unicode` matches what you want here.

`font-variant-emoji: unicode` doesn't achieve what @yisibl wants here, because the up-arrow is U+2B06. Checking Unicode's emoji-data.txt, it has the Emoji property:

> 2B05..2B07    ; Emoji                # E0.6   [3] (⬅️..⬇️)    left arrow..down arrow

but does not have Emoji_Presentation:

> 27BF          ; Emoji_Presentation   # E1.0   [1] (➿)       double curly loop
> 2B1B..2B1C    ; Emoji_Presentation   # E0.6   [2] (⬛..⬜)    black large square..white large square

so its default presentation will be the `text` form.

In terms of the Unicode Emoji and Emoji_Presentation properties, U+2B06 UPWARDS BLACK ARROW has the same properties as the ASCII digits, so it is expected that `font-variant-emoji` will affect them in the same way.
