Patch for icon change

I suggest a more suitable bookmark icon for .desktop files. The new icon has no plus sign. Please have a look at the patch attached.

The patch makes sense from my pov (especially when you compare the two Adwaita icons).

In the past we had the icon "gnome-fs-bookmark" which I think is still the most suitable icon available when I compare the available themes on my Xubuntu 17.10 machine. But this icon has been dropped according to the change log:

    Drop non-standard gnome-fs-bookmark and gnome-mime-application-x-executable icons

    Drop non-standard gnome-fs-* icons

The icon "user-bookmarks" seems to be for a button to list all bookmarks. This icon looks fine with most themes but on Adwaita and Gnome theme we have a directory symbol with a star.

The "bookmark-new" icon seems to be for a button to create new bookmarks and not for an existing bookmark. This explains the plus sign.

Manuel Grießmayr referenced this bugreport in commit eb01d3b550d5a8d180e61bdab26029e91beff4d9

Use user-bookmarks instead of bookmark-new for the bookmark icon (bug 14243)
