const chars = Array.from('👨👩👦👦') // ['👨', ZWJ, '👩', ZWJ, '👦', ZWJ, '👦']
// It is interpreted exactly as one character!
const chars = splitGraphemes('👨👩👦👦') // ['👨👩👦👦']
Array.from('ប៉ុស្ដិ៍') // ['ប', '៉', 'ុ', 'ស', '្', 'ដ', 'ិ', '៍']
splitGraphemes('ប៉ុស្ដិ៍') // ['ប៉ុ', 'ស្ដិ៍']
splitGraphemes('ごん゙に゙ぢば') // ['ご', 'ん゙', 'に゙', 'ぢ', 'ば']
