invidget Special characters don't work correctly

After Japanese support was added in #9, I've noticed that the renderer doesn't handle special characters correctly.

Discord seems to use Hiragino Sans for japanese. We could try to use that as a fallaback for characters that Whitney doens't support.

But does it affect all dialects (Hiragana, Katakana and Kanji)? @Flicksie

Discord seems to use a mix of hiragana and kanji (which should have been displayed in the screenshot above), so I guess it should affect Katakana too.

Ah, ight. PS: that workaround should also work for server names

Yeah, I'll probably end up implementing some sort of global font fallback for all the text we render

in #41 affect this issue.

in Discord css. it classified by region.

but How about use Noto Sans for these? i know it haven't in Discord Client but I think It covered.

Noto Sans doesn't (at least) cover the Korean language, I think. It could cover other ones, though, but I didn't test it. Most probably we would have to implement Apple SD Gothic Neo, Hiragino Sans, YaHei New and JhengHei.
