Categorize Material Symbols like old icons #1672

Open difhel opened 3 months ago

The older icons (available in this repository at path /src) are categorized - for example, in the icon src/action/account_box/materialicons/20px.svg with the name account_box the category is action. The old icons have been categorized into their respective category directories.

The new icons (also known as Material Symbols) are not categorized - /symbols/web/account_box/materialsymbolsoutlined/account_box_20px.svg. All SVG icons are storing in the same /symbols/web directory.

This leads to the fact that it is not possible to quickly find an icon in the Github repository as before. Moreover, due to the large number of icons in Material Symbols, Github displays only the first 1000 of them in the interface, which additionally complicates the search.

The icons are still categorized for display purposes at https://fonts.google.com/icons in the online browsing interface—but not in terms of directory structure.
