Edge case where emoji are used in actor name #3456

Description

@lordmatt

I've found an edge case with emoji and actor names.

In this instance, I added a heart emoji - ❤️ - to the end of the blog only actor name. The plugin seems to save it as that mess of escape codes. It copies from the widget as:

@<name>%e2%9d%a4%ef%b8%8f@<domain>

I tested it on a few instances of Mastodon. Masto hasn't a clue what I'm talking about.

Expected behaviour was one of: leave the emoji as is, show an error, or quietly trim it.
