Added icons for the following cores & systems. The majority bring this theme up to par with the current Libretro Database set of RDB files.

Hitachi - S1
Luxor - ABC 800
Nvidia - Shield Portable
Nvidia - Shield TV

I work from my own to-do list based on requests we receive, such as #458 and #419. The Commodore 128 request came from the Libretro Forums.

Firecore, Luxor ABC 800, FM Towns, FM-7, and Hitachi S1 are additions from the No-Intro Dat-O-Matic comparison on #433. While that list is intended to keep the Monochrome theme up to par, I also use it for the Systematic, Automatic and FlatUX themes. The Dat-O-Matic usually serves as a great springboard for cores that will be added in the future, so it's an excellent reference point.

The Palmtex Super Micro, PS5 Slim and Steam Deck icons are part of an effort I've always tried to make to stay a bit ahead of the curve and future proof the themes. I'm always looking for systems that could become cores someday, but I also try to add icons for supported platforms for RetroArch and supported hardware for Lakka.

And then there's Naomi. I drew both platforms as Arcade cabinets before realizing the arcade system had a console-like shell and cartridge media, similar to Neo Geo MVS. So the Universal icons ended up being alternatives that an end user could use instead of discarding them outright. EDIT: I also did something similar with Atomiswave by accident and will be submitting a PR for that shortly. I feel like users sometimes benefit from these "happy little mistakes."
