Title:
  [SRU 🪱] Update to 20200916 (to support missing emojis from unicode
  13.1)

Status in fonts-noto-color-emoji package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in fonts-noto-color-emoji source package in Focal:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [ Impact ]

  Many new emoji supported by various social platforms are not currently
  visible in Ubuntu 20.04, because of old font (even though the shipped
  ICU supports this version).

  here's a list for Unicode 13.0 and 13.1:
   - https://emojipedia.org/emoji-13.0/
   - https://emojipedia.org/emoji-13.1/

  [ Test Plan ]

  1. After installing the update, visit
  https://unicode.org/emoji/charts/full-emoji-list.html
  The browser column should match the Google column

  2. You can also use the Characters app shipped by default to verify
  that the emoji seem to work ok.

  This sentence should end asking "what do you want?" in the Italian
  way: 🤌

  [ Regression potential ]

  Emoji using a different composition not supported by 20.04 may show as
  multiple icons instead than as a single emoji.

  No emoji are shown when they used to be visible.

  This is easily comparable using https://unicode.org/emoji/charts/full-
  emoji-list.html where "Google" should match "Browser".

  python3-nototools has no rdepends and the only one Build-Depend is
  fonts-noto-color-emoji itself, so updating it has no effect either.
  Even though in this case is not needed.

  The design of some icons has been updated (compare browser with google
  columns at https://i.imgur.com/HkA3kOz.jpg), overall the look is
  consistent though and given that these are not part of any
  documentation or relevant component it's not something that needs an
  UFe.

  Note: Building the package with focal version of nototools is fine
  because fonts-noto-color-emoji depends on newer version only for tests
  and metadata checks which is not needed by our builds.

  This can be easily checked by diffing the resulting ttf extracting the
  data with ttx, which is in fact matching (for what it concerns real
  data).
