You can run uglifyjs.terser command to create twemoji.min.js either in 
debian/rules under override_dh_auto_build or create debian/nodejs/build 
and add

uglifyjs.terser -o twemoji.min.js twemoji.js

I recommend the following,

Source package: node-twemoji
Binary package: node-twimoji
Add Provides: libjs-twemoji (=${source:Version}) and remove dependency 
on nodejs for node-twemoji binary package.
