Emojis (e.g., 😱) in comments or project descriptions cause HTTP 500. MySQL's utf8 charset only supports 3-byte UTF-8; emojis require 4-byte utf8mb4.

Fixes #585.

This was made with Copilot agents as part of experiments for my HackWeek project.

I tested it manually and it works in my environment, as far as I can tell:

docker-compose exec hackweek bundle exec rspec apparently fails mid way for reasons I don’t understand. In logs I see:

hackweek-hackweek-1  | 15:13:49 system   | sending SIGTERM to all processes                                            │All examples were filtered out; ignoring {focus: true}

I hope this helps. Feedback welcome.
