I think this covers switching over from monochrome to color while still keeping the same support for other DEs. But it is a big change so it may still need a little testing on a few DEs before merge to make sure. Any testers would be appreciated!


Use full-color icons for battery. These icons match the rest of the color theme better and are easier
to see in both light and dark themes. Using full-color icons for these lower sizes now matches the look of the battery icons at 32px and above.

Remove monochromatic battery icons from the panel folder. Symbolic icons (which automatically recolorize) are now common so these monochromatic icons should no longer be needed. In places where developers have chosen not to use symbolic icons, we shouldn't force the look. This also solves an issue where the monochromatic icons were difficult to see with mixed light and dark themes (especially with per-app
light and dark theme preferences becoming more common).

Add symlinks for gpm- prefixed icons (used by MATE Power Manager). Re-add previously removed symlinks for old legacy upower names (battery-020, etc) which are still used in some apps and desktops.

Add missing ac-adapter and battery-missing icons used by some apps, including Xfce Power Manager.
