✔ Sound library: add icons to tasks panel

This task is about replacing the dummy icons displayed on the tasks panel by the actual files icons.

If this makes more sense to be done after the new API integration, let me know.


Logic:

The idea is to display the icon of the files being downloaded/uploaded in the current task.

For example, when download instruzjnetgs, the instruments icon appears for this task.

1. Note about group tasks:
For group tasks, we have 2 solutions:

1.1 Display the file icons dynamically:
The file icon changes depending on the file being current downloaded.

1.2 Display global sounds icon:
A global sounds icon is used for group task (see screenshot below)


I would prefer the solution 1 though.

2. Projects icons:
For projects, we use the DAW icons delivered by the API.
Those are for example visible in the "Cloud projects" tab


3. Notes about packs and plugins downloads:
When the new API is integrated, we will display the pack's/collection and plugins images, when downloading an entire pack or a installing a plugin.
This is not relevant for now, but to keep in mind for later.

4. Layout:

The icon should replace the current dummy icon used in the task panel.
The icons are to take from the sound items.

The files icons and the DAW icons should have the same sizes.

The files icons should have the same color as in the app's top bar, see screenshot below.


Below is a screenshot of the expected result:
