copyright info for icons

I understand that the icons are taken from Google's Material Design Icons? I believe these are under the Apache License, and the copyright notice needs to be preserved.

If we embed via Google Fonts using a <link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/...">, Google—not us—serves the icon files to users, so we are not redistributing the Work.

So our understanding is that in that case, there’s no obligation under §4.C(Redistribution clause) to ship a license file.

That would be fine, or you could set up a vendor directory in this repo if you don't want to depend on CDNs, which is a reasonable concern, or just pull out individual items, as long as we're complying with license terms.

You might know of other assets or code where this is also a concern. Thanks!
