The overlay's fallback fonts were the first few fontconfig sans matches, which rarely include an emoji font. Fall back to Roblox's bundled TwemojiMozilla and RobloxEmoji fonts, then the system emoji font, before the sans list.

The TextBox overlay picked its fallback fonts from the first few fontconfig sans matches, which rarely include an emoji font, so emoji typed into text boxes showed as missing-glyph boxes.
The overlay now falls back to Roblox's bundled
TwemojiMozilla.ttf(Unicode emoji) andRobloxEmoji.ttf(Roblox and Robux symbols), then the system emoji font, before the sans list. The fallback cap goes from 6 to 8 so the sans fonts are not crowded out.Adds a resolver test for the bundled emoji fonts.
