Support messages and echo area.

Hi @matthew-piziak,

If you control the code calling message then this is trivial, basically you will have to do something like

(message (emojify-string "<emoji>"))

instead of

(message "<emoji>")

However making this work in general might need a bit more work, will look into this.

Strange, if I do (message (emojify-string "<C-x 8 RET SNOWFLAKE>")) then I just get the literal #("❄" 0 1 (emojified t emojify-display (image :type png :file "/home/matt/.emacs.d/emojis/emojione-v2.2.6-22/2744.png" :ascent center :heuristic-mask t :background "#F0FFF0" :scale ...) display (image :type png :file "/home/matt/.emacs.d/emojis/emojione-v2.2.6-22/2744.png" :ascent center :heuristic-mask t :background "#F0FFF0" :scale ...) emojify-text "❄")) in the message buffer. It's clear that the emoji picture is downloaded, but it doesn't display.

Actually when you evaluate something in Emacs (using C-xC-e) the return value is echoed in the minibuffer. message returns the string that was echoed in this case as a literal string.

Do something like the following, this should display the message correctly

(run-at-time 1.0 nil (lambda () (message (emojify-string "This is a test ❄"))))

Oh that totally works. Thank you so much!
