Add emoji_helper.rb instead of gitlab_emoji gem and upgrade Gemojione

Connor Shea requested to merge update-gemoji into master

What does this MR do?

  • No reason to split it into a separate gem when the gem barely did anything. We can use gemojione directly, making updating gemojione that much easier. Unless there's a particularly good reason we were using the gem?
  • Fixes the Rake task since it broke after all the AwardEmoji changes.
  • Update gemojione to 2.6.1.

Changelog: https://github.com/jonathanwiesel/gemojione/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md

Are there points in the code the reviewer needs to double check?

That sprites and emoji aren't broken (they shouldn't be, I tested).
