bug#48125: 28.0.50; Display garbled by emoji variation sequence

[Filipp Gunbin]

emacs -Q

Enter a base emoji char and composing variation selector right after it:

C-x 8 RET SOCCER BALL
C-x 8 RET VARIATION SELECTOR-16

Then, for example:
C-a a s d f

And the display becomes garbled.

When auto-composition is turned off (M-x toggle-auto-composition),
everything is fine.

The above sequence is a real text which I got in an email header.  It
seems to be a valid variation sequence:

http://www.unicode.org/Public/emoji/5.0/emoji-variation-sequences.txt

...
26BD FE0E  ; text style;  # (5.2) SOCCER BALL
26BD FE0F  ; emoji style; # (5.2) SOCCER BALL
...

This is in tty emacs, built from latest master, on macOS.

Thanks.
