Icon to run cell and all cells it depends on

[minsa110]

Is your icon request related to a problem? Please describe.

In notebook, if I want to execute a cell (i.e., cell D) after making a modification to a cell above (i.e., cell A), I have to remember to execute all the cells that D depends on, including cell A, and any other cells in between (i.e., cell C).

In a complex notebook it’s hard to know which cells a modification to one will dirty, which leads to either errors or simply resigning to running all the cells even if it’s unnecessary. When a cell is costly to run, like they can be in ML tasks, this is a major waste of time.

Describe the solution you'd like

We will build a solution to keep track of cell execution dependencies, and would like to add a command to invoke that from any cell. The proposed solution is as listed in this issue comment. The icon and wording should both be re-examined.

Describe alternatives you've considered

I've added this icon some time ago and it lives in the extension:

@daviddossett do we need to add this icon to the codicons repo as well?

Is that command part of the native Notebooks UI? If so, adding to Codicons makes sense. If not, it should probably be only included in the extension.
