Description of the New Feature

When we see any emojis in windows terminal it shows their unicode data. Not the emoji itself. See the following screenshot

Most of the time I use emojis in git commit messages. Also on macOS terminal emojis are visible by default. So It would be great if we have that feature on windows terminal.

Let me know about this feature request.
