The SVGs must not be part of any stable API, there is too much behavior
implied that we cannot/do not specify. So it's perfectly likely that a future
change in the SVGs or rendering libraries breaks things in some detail. But
then we cannot update the SVGs without risking breaking other clients that
rely on the current behavior.
Besides: we only have one theme, called "gnome" because a push
towards having SVGs for other themes never happened.
And that theme isn't gnome-specific, it merely looks GNOMEy. The theme is very
much piper-specific in that it requires certain elements that piper cares
about. Currently anyway, if we make this part of our API, piper cannot change
that behavior ever without breaking others.
So let's drop SVG handling completely and rely on the clients to sort it out
for themselves.
For now the SVGs are left in the tree to make it easier to copy to Piper. Once
that's done, we will remove those too.

The hwdb was a quick and easy way to add entries for new devices but we need
more and more info about the various types of devices. It's better to move
this to a proper database.
Side-effect: this also gives us an easy way to point to the list of devices
supported and makes checking for e.g. missing svgs easier.
