    shell/app-system: Monitor for icon theme changes
    
    Whenever an app is installed, the usual routine is
    to run 'gtk-update-icon-cache' after installing all
    of the app's files.
    
    The side effect of that is that the .desktop file of
    the application is installed before the icon theme
    is updated. Under some circumstances (e.g. on very
    slow spinning disks) the app icon is never actually
    loaded, and we see the fallback icon.
    
    Monitor the icon theme for changes when an app is
    installed. Try as many as 6 times before giving up
    on detecting an icon theme update.
