Description
An idea from a discussion in this pull request: https://github.com/linebender/runebender/pull/247
Would it be possible to load icons from a UFO file in the `resources` directory? Currently, I am drawing the icons in Runebender and pasting them into the `toolbar.rs` file (see the screenshot below).
I have a git repo for the icon UFOs I have worked with so far [here](https://github.com/eliheuer/runebender-icons/tree/main/ufo-icon-source/toolsbar-icons.ufo). It might be nice to just add a UFO like this to the resources directory so an external repo isn't needed to track these files.

Research direction
Start by inspecting toolbar.rs and the resources directory, then compare the existing pasted icon definitions with the UFO source linked in the issue. Determine how Runebender currently loads resources and verify that the toolbar icons are loaded from a UFO file in resources rather than embedded in toolbar.rs.
