android: qr scanner: add emoji to clipboard string
The string is not translated and might not be accessible for non-english
speakers, even though its relatively self-explanatory i think adding
this emoji makes it more accessible.
What changed, and why it matters
This commit simply adds a clipboard emoji (📋) to an on-screen button label in the Android QR scanner and updates the project's Unicode whitelist to allow that emoji. There is no security relevance.
No action needed; this is a benign UI-only change.
Security signals we found
No strong security signals were identified.
Evidence from the diff
The change modifies scanner_layout.xml to change the button text from ‘Paste from clipboard’ to ‘Paste from clipboard 📋’, and adds the 📋 character to UNICODE_WHITELIST in contrib/ban_unicode.py so the project’s lint-style script permits it. It is a UI accessibility/aesthetic change with no code behavior change.
