Fixes #6833. This explores the Factorio-esque icon idea.

Icon is made by me

Some comments:

  • Having the icon in the top left corner looks weird - I'd prefer if this was similar to your screenshot in Settings should have a tooltip indicator #6833 of Factorio.
  • I'd prefer the icon to be an i (similar to Factorio), though we usually use the outlined icons.
  • Some settings have a colon after the name. With the tooltip indicator, this looks off.
  • The tooltip on the indicator should have a smaller delay (maybe even no delay at all?).
  • On high DPI screens, the icon looks blurry.

Hopefully this looks better than rendering to a QPixmap. We should
already have qt svgwidgets because we bring in qt svg.
