Description

Usually, there were icons for at least Console, Map, Misseditor windows.
Currently, only a generic gear is displayed for them in the taskbar.
FWIW: when running sim_vehicle then XTERM is the only window related to the simulation with an icon.

This is in venv_ardupilot.
`GDK_BACKEND=x11 mavproxy.py --console --map`
...Does not help.

Research direction

Reproduce the issue in the venv_ardupilot environment with `GDK_BACKEND=x11 mavproxy.py --console --map`, and compare the taskbar behavior with `sim_vehicle` and its XTERM window. Trace the Console, Map, and Misseditor windows from that entry point; done means each window has its expected taskbar icon instead of the generic gear.
