Some emoji images are fully black, which makes them invisible in chat reactions in Signal messenger when dark display theme is used. This PR adds a while outline for these emojis, so they are visible with both light and dark display themes.

By the way, this repository is used by Signal messenger, with Apple image data used for Apple, Android, and PC app.

You can check which emojis look poorly on the dark background
by changing color scheme in your browser settings
Images that are partially black, such as ninja, are not modified

You should propose this for the individual emoji providers. This repository merely aggregates them.
