Emoji not accepted for blog title and subtitle

[marco.marsala]

Emoji inserted in blog title or subtitle will be stripped out.

This is working for me with utf8mb4.

@marco.marsala Can you let us know what database charset you're using is? You'd need to look at the wp_options table directly. It'll probably be utf8 or utf8mb4.

Seems I'm already using utf-8. Please find the screenshot attached.

Is there anywhere we use blogname or blogdescription that wouldn't like it if emoji were HTML encoded? If not, we could tweak sanitize_option() to do that.

#25485 and #27942 are related, but the former is invalid and the latter appears to be resolved.

In 37469:

Emoji: Allow emoji in blogname and blogdescription on utf8 installs.

When the options table is set to utf8 instead of utf8mb4, emoji will be stripped from the blog name and description when they're saved. Instead of stripping them, they can be encode as HTML entities.

Fixes #36122.
