"Resolve" emojis if they're valid after their trailing :

Your use case

What would you like to do?

If i've typed an emoji, and they're valid when "closing" them with a trailing :, resolve them according to the exact shortcode.

Why would you like to do it?

It's established behaviour in Discord, and it'd fix some weird behaviour in #19174

How would you like to achieve it?

When typing a :, check if all preceding non-whitespace characters (up until another :) are a valid shortcode, then resolve.

Note: not only if an emoji suggestion picker is present, discord behaviour is to convert (:eyes:) to (:eyes:) after the last :

Have you considered any alternatives?

@daniellekirkwood this enhancement looks good to me, but I need product acceptance. 😄

Also, for consistency, I'd like it if this auto-resolving also happens on paste, as discord also does that automatically.

@Palid Product accepted... We should resolve the emoji shorthand if we are able to. For example :+1: should resolve automatically to 👍
