wiggly example: add support for emojis etc. (utf16 surrogate pairs)

The venerable wiggly example was created before unicode support was
added to Qt. Hence, when extracting the individual characters from the
string for painting, the code was not prepared to handle that some
characters, like emojis, are composed of two QChar elements.
