Core: [Emoji] Duplicate emojis on dropdown list
Whenever I type :tong, the first 3 results are exactly the same.
I don't know if this is also a bug for other entries, I just know about the tongue emoji (:tongue:)

Confirmed ... while responding to Franz's long emoji thread I got more _oden_ than I bargained for.
It looks as though it might be offering recently selected items as suggestions ...

Darn, I wanted to fix this before any of you noticed. ;)
It's a small regresssion, part of my recent fix. Because we first search for exact matches from the beginning, and only switch to fuzzy matches if we haven't found enough (7) exact matches, it can sometimes happen that a fuzzy match duplicates an exact match.
Although, to be honest, that does not explain how "tongue" can appear three times.

@franzliedke I don't know how the dropdown works but if you deduplicate entries I recommend you do it by codepoint (e.g. 26f5) rather than shortname. For instance, both :book: and :open_book: point to the same emoji: U+26F5. Typing this I found that's what GitHub does too, if you type :open_ it will suggest :book: but not :open_book:.
