I agree, but [1] depends on [2], because set-fontset-font needs to
know the script.
Also, Noto Color Emoji has a free license, so it's okay for it to be
in fontset.el, but it is not clear to me whether Apple Color Emoji is
distributed under a free license.

"Finished", in the sense that it is in Emacs already?

Thanks.
FWIW, I think this is good enough to land on master directly, I see no
need for a feature branch.
