What 勇 means
Yes: 勇 is a compatibility form of 勇.
Unicode also defines 勇︁, where the invisible UFE01 selector can request this glyph form in supporting software.
Why does 勇 appear in older encodings?
It preserves older character-set mappings.
Unicode reserves this supplement for round-trip conversion with Taiwan’s CNS 11643-1992, a character encoding standard. Hong Kong’s Supplementary Character Set (HKSCS) maps Big5 code 9874 to U2F825 in HKSCS-2001; HKSCS-2016 still pairs it with 勇. These entries preserve the same character across older encoding systems.
In ordinary text, read it as 勇; the distinctive form belongs to encoding history.
Normalization collapses 勇 to 勇, so the original code point will not survive.

1Why does 勇 show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
