Adds various astronomical symbols. These days, I believe only the symbols for the sun, earth and jupiter are commonly used in actual science, but do see use in astrology.

There's also

  • ♇ for Pluto, but I skipped that one since it's no longer a planet.
  • A bunch of moon symbols, some which can act as emojis

If Pluto is important in astrology, maybe we should add its symbol even if astronomers no longer consider it a planet?

Pluto has a separate symbol used for astrology apparently.

There's a bunch more symbols that could be added, for dwarf planets and such. The question is whether that should go in this PR or a separate one.

If there are more symbols, let's keep them for a future PR.
