emoji in window title larger than font size

[gksudolol]

Describe the bug

I scale down from 3840x2160 to 1920x1080, with this I need to bump the font size in the bar significantly

Doing so makes the emojis huge where it pushes the window title outside the bar

Tested different fonts with same result, doesn't occur if I don't scale output

The code for the penrose status bar is very minimal. I'm not sure exactly how I would expect it to interact with output scaling but that sounds a lot like the scaling for the fallback font being used for emojis is different to that used for your main bar font? The logic for determining the fallback font for a given character is here (which was adapted from this approach used by dwm) and setting a point size for the requested font is handled like this.

It might be as simple as needing to add the :size={point_size} suffix to fallback fonts but I don't see anything like this in the dwm code for the fallback fonts being found there so I'm not sure I'm afraid.
