Emoji platform support

Due to the inconsistent support of Emoji in various platforms and terminals, it may lead to inconsistent display.

As my main development platform is Windows, so I had tried Webstorm 和 VSCode under Windows Platform. Founded that the 'vscode' terminal has better support for Emoji, while the 'webstorm' terminal is relatively poor. So I filter some available icon sets are provided here. You can choose them when you customize them.
