I'm trying to package Vanilla in a Flatpak, which only seems to support icons in share/icons. It also seems to be where most apps install their icons. Flatpak also forces icons to be square, so I've increased the height to 600 and centred the gamepad, and created a copy of the original for use in the input configuration dialog.

Flatpak (and presumably other software) only look for icons in share/icons,
and so doesn't find the Vanilla icon in its current location.
The icon and gamepad diagram have seperate use cases, and should be seperate
images. This allows us to make the icon a square, which many programs expect
(including Flatpak), without intefering with the input configuration dialog.

This would probably be useful but needs to be updated for the latest commit.

Ultimately an actual icon design would probably be better than just making the current one square.

I can make one, what style should i go for? A 3d render or an svg?
