Drop Font Awesome in favor of inline SVG or Bootstrap icons #1306

Description

@CybotTM

The theme currently depends on Font Awesome and ships icon fonts.

I consider icon fonts legacy technology. For modern documentation UI, inline SVGs or a small local SVG sprite would be cleaner:

  • no webfont loading
  • smaller asset surface for a small icon set
  • better accessibility control
  • less dependency overhead

Since Bootstrap is already used by the theme, Bootstrap Icons could also be considered.

Any opinions on this?
