D24621: [RFC] New Konsole and Yakuake icons

[Noah Davis]

  The Yakuake icon is a major improvement. The little angled rectangle making the prompt arrow look like a Y is a little distracting, but also kind of charming and helps to distinguish it from Konsole. I kind of still prefer the plainer ">_" version though.
  
  I think the K in most of the Konsole variants is a bit too much and I think it would be too distracting. It's not immediately obvious that it's a K. When I look at it, the first thing my eyes see is "**>**__|**<**__", rather than "**>**__K__", which is confusing. I think that green color is not particularly Breeze-like and there's no clear reason why green would be a symbol for Konsole. The reason why blue is commonly used is because of Plasma Blue (`#3daee9`), Plasma's main accent/highlight color. I do like the idea of tabs on the bottom, but they look a bit off somehow. Maybe it's because they don't look like Breeze tabs? We may want to consider changing the look of Breeze tabs in the future though, so it's probably best if we don't try too hard to match the look of the Breeze widget theme. 
  Maybe something like this? I'm not sure. F7592258: Screenshot_20191014_011043.png <https://phabricator.kde.org/F7592258> F7592287: konsole.svg <https://phabricator.kde.org/F7592287>
