Description

In NC 34 the favicon is set to the icon of the current opened app. For embedded external sites this is always the globe symbol.

I suggest using the selected icon for the external site as favicon instead of the globe for all external sites.

Research direction

Start by tracing how the external-site app chooses the favicon in Nextcloud 34, then compare that path with where the selected icon for an external site is stored or rendered. Done means embedded external sites use their selected icon as the favicon instead of the globe symbol.
