I'm cool with this. Thank you for doing all the heavy lifting and digging through WGL4/CP437.
@j4james Does this seem like a reasonable set of glyphs for revert? Within the constraints of "some people really do want emoji, and I don't know why they want it in their terminal", that is.

changing it to wide would only cause destruction

Yeah, this looks like it covers all the ones I was concerned about. I'm still a little worried that we may not be in sync with other terminals, but we'll see how that goes. |

A couple of codepoints, namely the card suites, male and female signs,
and white and black smiling faces were changed to have a two-column
width as part of #5795 since they were specified as emoji in Unicode's
emoji list v13.0[1].
These particular glyphs also show up in some of the most fundamental
code pages, such as CP437[2] and WGL4[3]. We should
not be touching the width of the glyphs in these codepages, as suddenly
changing a long-time-running narrow glyph to use two-columns all of a
sudden will surely break (and has already broken) things.
