Use Glyphicons for app icons #7

Current icons are in png format. PNGs are not scalable. A glyphicon typeface is based on svg, which is scalable and always look fine and it is more customizable.

I think the Glyphicons set is PNG too (???). Not 100% sure.

There's Fontawesome, which is a typeface so it's scalable.

SVG has not enough performance on Gecko, but we can try using them if you think it's the best approach.
