Description

Hey Jan :)

First of all thanks for the icon packs - we've been using them happily for a few months now, and they saved us tons of time.

We're in the process of switching over to Material Design, and I noticed that you are providing the (legacy) Material **_Design_** icon set, but not the new Material **_Symbols_**. They can both be browsed at https://fonts.google.com/icons (see dropdown in the "Style" options), and I noticed a few times already that the new Symbols library actually would provide the better alternatives. Any chance we may see those in MahApps someday?

Cheers!
