bug#63194: OpenMoji font is drawn invisibly

[Timo Wilken]

Some applications fail to draw the OpenMoji font packaged in Guix
(font-openmoji package). This includes LibreOffice Writer and Polybar
(both as packaged in Guix). Weirdly, gucharmap seems to draw the font
fine.

Any symbols in OpenMoji are drawn completely transparently, as far as
I can tell. They still take up as much space between other characters
as they should, but I can't see anything on a light or dark
background.

I've attached screenshots showing the problem (LibreOffice, polybar)
and of gucharmap drawing the font OK (with "View -> Show only symbols
from this font" enabled).

This started happening this week, when I upgraded Guix from 13ebf5e
(Guix home generation 284) to e86851c (Guix home generation 285). It
worked fine with Guix 13ebf5e and before.
