Prefer Noto fonts, then emoji

Prior to 1e1e9228adf53c243acd7408ae43c413f781e721, emoji were not
working correctly on FreeBSD. The DejaVu fonts include a bunch of
monochrome emoji which take precendence over the colour emoji in the
Twitter Color Emoji font.

While setting the Twitter Color Emoji font as preferred for serif,
sans-serif and monospace font aliases *did* result in consistent emoji
being displayed across the board, it also made that font the default for
all font families, which caused issues with monospaced text, in
particular.

Since the issue is the presence of emoji in the DejaVu fonts, we force
Noto Sans, Serif, and Sans Mono to the front of the sans-serif, serif,
and monospace alias lists since they're reasonable alternative defaults
and don't include emoji.
