Support emoji modifiers

Project Member Reported by rpop@chromium.org, Aug 2 
Chrome Version       : 70.0.3508.0
OS Version: 10.0

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open Gmail
2. View an email that uses emoji with modifier, for example, light brown high five hands

What is the expected result?
Emoji displayed in supported format per http://unicode.org/reports/tr51/#Emoji_Modifiers_Display

What happens instead of that?
Emoji renders in the fallback spec state. For example, yellow high five hands followed by light brown square (attached)

I'm unsure if this is a Chrome bug or a problem between Gmail and Chrome.

Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if
possible.

Interesting, it renders just fine on Windows 10 using the system font for me. 

What is more puzzling is that what you are seeing is not the default windows version of the emoji, rather that looks like the old Google style.
Have you changed your font settings, installed a font manager, or font extension perhaps?

If not, would you mind forwarding an email (or part thereof) that demonstrates the problem?

It renders correctly (and in the windows system font) on inbox.google.com, and the sender also sees is rendering incorrectly in gmail. I will file a bug against Gmail and close this.
