Description

Describe the bug
The favicon shows in the Google search result page should not be skewed.

In the HTML header we probably are not using the standard attribute for the icon, or missing the line here:

<link data-rh="true" rel="shortcut icon" href="/static/824a316591aa77b6ed2559aa3d5a613b/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon">

Per Google's guide: https://developers.google.com/search/docs/appearance/favicon-in-search?hl=en&visit_id=638629747645764617-1384079662&rd=1
