The options I see (on top of that):
- we could just install a font package that ships it, e.g., the
fonts-noto-color-emoji one, I mean 10.8 MB isn't negligible, but
neither _that_ big..
- Use ◯ for down and ⬤ for up, and color them via CSS, or
whatever is the easiest here for GTK combobox entries.

I cannot 100% pin it down, but I do not really like arrows for
conveying that information even though the map to up/down directly,
but arrows are normally used for rather different things in UI
context (e.g., sorting, or resize handles), so IMO to overloaded
already.
