If emoji is at the beginning of a new line, it blocks Shift+Home highlighting

(#3381) Bug Confirmed desktop emoji messaging

Observed behaviour

The line only gets highlighted up to right behind the emoji at the start of the line. A Shift+Left arrow is required to get over that first emoji. This behavior might be related to the weirdness I reported in #3380.

Reproduction steps

  1. Start a new message with an emoji
  2. Type some stuff after
  3. With the cursor still at the end of the line, press Shift+Home
