Remove Legacy/Deprecated Symbols #5887
Description
Describe the bug
Microsoft is now on the third revision of the symbols font with Windows 11 and WinUI3.
Segoe UI Symbol -> Segoe MDL2 Assets -> Segoe Fluent Icons
However, default styles in this repository continue to use Unicode points for symbol glyphs that are from the original Segoe UI Symbol font in Windows 7/8.x. These all need to be updated to the modern Unicode points.
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/apps/design/style/segoe-fluent-icons-font#icon-list
Steps to reproduce the bug
Search the source code for the mentioned Unicode points.
Expected behavior
Should be using the valid symbols with latest Unicode points described here:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/apps/design/style/segoe-fluent-icons-font
Note that these are for the most part backwards compatible with Segoe MDL2 Assets; however, glyphs must exist in both fonts for full compatiblity.
Screenshots
A quick source code search only returned the following legacy symbols that need to be updated.
