Update icon used for "Touch to begin" button #265

The icon we're currently using for the "Touch to begin" button on the experience instance initial cards was kind of a placeholder. It's really just a pointer and doesn't convey the touchscreen aspect of things that I think would be ideal for our context.

Unfortunately, FontAwesome doesn't have a good icon for this purpose (that's why I used the pointer icon above but considered it a placeholder). I don't have a strong feeling about this, other than I think it would be ideal to use an icon that is more obviously suggestive of touching the screen, if we can find one we like better than the hand pointer.

Maybe someone can try replacing the current placeholder icon with this one? https://fonts.google.com/icons?selected=Material+Icons&icon.query=touch

It might look roughly like this (but we should give it the same background color as the current icon, so it wouldn't be so heavy):
