Unicode chars after plane 0 should be properly parsed

First, thank you very much for developing the extremely useful StringManipulation Package. It is of extreme utility and I am grateful that you make it available under a permissive license.

Yes, my request is not entirely serious:

When commenting code or assigning TODOs, I like to make use of some Unicode chars, for instance 1f4a9, very useful, rendering to "PILE OF POO", which actually is available in the Source Code Font (http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/font/source_code_pro/list.htm).

Regrettably, unicode-unescaping renders the glyph as "GREEK CAPITAL LETTER OMICRON WITH PSILI AND VARIA" + 9, so that, unfortunately, I need to resort to more verbose explanations.

Perhaps you could consider correcting this parsing in one of the future releases.

Anyhow, thank you very much for your effort developing this package!

I just tried "Escaped Unicode to String" and it seems to work fine for "\uD83D\uDCA9" (https://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/1f4a9/index.htm)
