Bug description

Papirus is my favorite icon theme and list view my default view. When I set zoom level below 66%, icons get monochrome/symbolic.
Don't now if this is intended, but on symbolic and compact view it doesn't do that.

Steps to reproduce

Open Nemo, set it to list view and to 33% or 50% zoom level

Expected behavior

Set to list view and zoom level 33% or 50%, colored folder icons should be display.

Additional information

I also tested it with Mint-Y icon theme and folders are colored on 33% or 50%.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the behavior in Nemo 6.4.3 using the Papirus theme, list view, and 33% or 50% zoom; compare it with Mint-Y and with symbolic or compact view. Trace how list-view zoom selects folder icons, and consider the issue done when colored folder icons remain visible at the reported lower zoom levels without changing the other views.
