Purpose of this is to reduce our reliance on images (allowing us to expand supported regions without uploading more files to the repo), and let platforms draw their native flag designs.

Mozilla has been shipping Firefox with the EmojiOne font set for emoji support for a while, and various mobile platforms and desktops do support this character block.

This PR is for testing support before we merge it.

emojiflags.com is a good live example of how flags will render in your browser natively.

14:20≀05 <Tak> I get the two-letter glyphs, ubuntu 16.04, ff and chrome
14:21≀53 <hateball> Same ^
14:22≀56 <Tak> also 17.04 (not surprisingly)
14:30≀56 <HER0_01> In Chromium on Arch, 10 of those render for me

Sigh.

An option would be to include flags in our steamlug font.
