Description
### Feature Request / Improvement
The Iceberg docs left-hand nav currently has a mixture of links to within the docs, and those external such as third-party sites.
The UX of this can grate, because the user is never sure when they're leaving the Iceberg docs or not.
We should update the docs so that link use one of the generally recognised icons to indicate an external link such as https://fontawesome.com/v4/icon/external-link

Research direction
Start by locating the Iceberg docs left-hand navigation configuration and review how its internal and external links are defined. Update the external entries to use a recognised external-link icon, then verify that external destinations are visibly distinguishable from links within the docs.
