How can check if the emoji is disabled on the site or not?

I have searched for an official function but I haven't found anything officially, We are creating a theme and will publish it soon and need to check if the customer has disabled the emojis by adding any function or by any another way.

To completely remove emojis this is the code:

    remove_action( 'wp_head', 'print_emoji_detection_script', 7 ); 
    remove_action( 'admin_print_scripts', 'print_emoji_detection_script' ); 
    remove_action( 'wp_print_styles', 'print_emoji_styles' ); 
    remove_action( 'admin_print_styles', 'print_emoji_styles' );

So to check if any of those are active you could use has_action() like this:

    $emoji_script front = has_action( 'wp_head', 'print_emoji_detection_script' );
    if( $emoji_script_front ) {
      // The emoji script is loaded on the front end
    } 

You could do different things for each of the actions. has_action does not care about priority, and this should work in the functions.php file since it runs later than all of those actions.
