Support for iconix

[poperigby]

Somebody made a Python script that will patch Vesktop to use the default Discord icons: https://github.com/Arcitec/iconix

It would be very useful to have this as an option.

This feels somewhat difficult to pull off, but its certainly possible. I'll keep this open and try to work on it when I get the chance.

The desktop icon can be easily patched if your installed icon theme includes a discord icon:

vesktop.package = pkgs.vesktop.overrideAttrs (prev: {
  desktopItems = [
    (pkgs.makeDesktopItem {
      name = "discord";
      desktopName = "Discord";
      exec = "vesktop %U";
      icon = "discord";
      startupWMClass = "Discord";
      genericName = "Internet Messenger";
      keywords = [
        "discord"
        "vencord"
        "vesktop"
      ];
    })
  ];
});

@joinemm that will only patch the desktop icon though, not all the in-application icons.
