Add an icon for tabs viewing a local file

[Detonator212]

I'm often viewing PDFs in Firefox and I use the tab icons to quickly find the right tab, but when a tab contains a PDF it has no icon. This makes it harder for me to find it quickly as I'm looking for the absence of something. Some icon for a tab containing a PDF or just an icon indicating a tab is viewing a local file would be really useful.

Big second.

Replacing the globe icon with the file icon would be good enough in my opinion. Just something to visually represent it's a file and not a website.

I would also appreciate an icon, or even better, customizable text / emojis as a PDF tab's favicon.

This is especially useful if the user keeps a few PDFs as pinned tabs. As of 146.0b3, any pinned PDFs are indistinguishable from each other because they share the same placeholder globe icon in the tab bar.
