Create blank drawable if no emoji present

[kunall17]

I encountered a bug while logging into zulip.tabbott.net there was a emoji which is not in our android emoji's folder therefore it gave an error and the recyclerView wasn't able to render on the screen, I'm updating my dev server to get the new emoji's and post more emoji's here!
So this would render no emoji at that place which is better than nothing!

sounds good to me @kunall17 !

do you have an idea what it would take to get custom emoji onto the app?

[timabbott]

When you specify custom emoji, do you mean realm-specific emoji?

GET realm/emoji will fetch the emoji data from the server.

@timabbott yep exactly. issue #13 is already open for this. :)

@timabbott I recently migrated from fedora to windows because of some weird kernel errors!
In windows I haven't been able to dump the emoji's, I haven't tried anything more than python emoji_dump.py' inzulip/tools/setup/emoji_dump`

I always get this error!
I had to dump the new emoticons of the server in the android project!

I think the issue is a Vagrant/Virtualbox/Windows compatibility issue; the reproducer is I think trying to make a symlink. See hashicorp/vagrant#6024; I think it may be you need to upgrade virtualbox to fix this problem?

Uploaded the emoji in a tarball (see attached).

@timabbott thankyou so much for the archive! 👍
