Emoji reactions not displayed correctly in Element Android
Describe the bug
Emoji reactions from FluffyChat don't get rendered properly on Element Android. Instead they show up as { "type": m.reaction }

Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Send an emoji reaction in an encrypted room from FluffyChat.
- Check the room from a different FluffyChat device: The reaction is rendered correctly.
- Check the room from Element Web: The reaction is rendered correctly.
- Check the room from Element Android.
Expected behavior
The reaction is rendered correctly.

It's hard to tell whether the underlying bug is on the FluffyChat or Element Android end. The former seems likely but since Element Web renders the reaction correctly, I am not entirely sure.
