Subject: [PATCH] fix(engine): Home tile glyphs picked from FiraMono's actual
 coverage
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The bundled face is FiraMono-Medium (assets/fonts/main.ttf), and its
glyph table covers card suits (U+2660-2666) plus basic Geometric
Shapes (U+25xx) but not Dingbats / Misc Symbols. The previous round
of "BMP fallbacks" still picked from blocks FiraMono doesn't cover,
so 4 of 5 tiles continued to render as tofu.

Re-picked from ranges FiraMono actually has:
- Daily: U+25C6 (BLACK DIAMOND)
- Zen:   U+25CB (WHITE CIRCLE) — Zen enso
- Challenge: U+25B2 (BLACK UP-POINTING TRIANGLE) — climbing
- TimeAttack: U+25B6 (BLACK RIGHT-POINTING TRIANGLE) — play / FF
- Classic keeps U+2663 (BLACK CLUB SUIT)
