Explore next steps and issues for replacing current font awesome and pficons with Red Hat icon set:

@mceledonia The following issue/question just comes to mind about this...

Currently we support a subset of font awesome icons + pficons. However, we give projects that latitude to use any fa icon in their product and in fact have imported the complete fa set into React icons. I know that many products do use icons that are outside of our recommended set. If we are to have a more RH specific icon set, what's our migration path? Can or should we mix RH and FA icons? I would think not, but are there other ways to solve this?
