Can't figure out how to change icon theme in nnn
I am building nnn from source, and I used these instructions from the docs to set the theme (doesn't seem to apply to the icons however).
The icon-theme seems to be driven by your terminal font as detailed in `src/icons-in-terminal.h & icons.h, and the choice of "terminal-icon vs nerd-fonts vs emoji" appear to be hard-wired at compile-time rather than at run-time.
