Japanese x Chinese unicode issue

Source: excalidraw/excalidraw#8675 · opened by @Mrazator

With #8530, most Kanji will be displayed as Hanzi (as Xiaolai is biased towards Chinese), which might be unreadable for some Japanese or even unusable in certain Japanese use cases/domains. See the following example:
