Construct MetadataRepo from an input stream. The library does not close the given
InputStream, therefore it is caller's responsibility to properly close the stream.
Parameters
typeface
Typeface: Typeface to be used to render emojis
inputStream
InputStream: InputStream to read emoji metadata from
Construct MetadataRepo from a byte buffer. The position of the ByteBuffer will change, it is
caller's responsibility to reposition the buffer if required.
Parameters
typeface
Typeface: Typeface to be used to render emojis
byteBuffer
ByteBuffer: ByteBuffer to read emoji metadata from
