Emojito: Find all Emoji in a string. Supports complex emoji such as family

I’ve released a small new Rust crate which solves a kind of complex unicode problem: It helps finding Emoji in strings. Supports complex emoji such as 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦. Uses the unic-emoji-char crate in the background, and does not rely on regexes.

For example:

let content = "Test 😘❤️! 😻💓 👨‍👩‍👦  kk 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦";
let emojis = emojito::find_emoji(content);
assert_eq!(emojis.len(), 6);

It, it correctly finds 6 emoji even though some of them are complex combinations of multiple emojis.
