The "nuget spec" command generates a .nuspec file with an iconUrl

[loic-sharma]

Problem

Our docs for creating a package uses the nuget spec command. This generates a nuspec with an iconUrl, which is a deprecated property.

Once we fix this issue, we should update our docs. See: https://github.com/NuGet/docs.microsoft.com-nuget/issues/1966

Detailed repro steps so we can see the same problem

1. Run nuget spec using nuget.exe v5.8.0
2. Inspect the contents of the generated nuspec file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<package >
  <metadata>
    <id>Package</id>
    <version>1.0.0</version>
    <authors>Ninja</authors>
    <requireLicenseAcceptance>false</requireLicenseAcceptance>
    <license type="expression">MIT</license>
    <projectUrl>http://project_url_here_or_delete_this_line/</projectUrl>
    <iconUrl>http://icon_url_here_or_delete_this_line/</iconUrl>
    <description>Package description</description>
    <releaseNotes>Summary of changes made in this release of the package.</releaseNotes>
    <copyright>$copyright$</copyright>
    <tags>Tag1 Tag2</tags>
    <dependencies>
      <group targetFramework=".NETStandard2.1">
        <dependency id="SampleDependency" version="1.0.0" />
      </group>
    </dependencies>
  </metadata>
</package>

The iconUrl feature is deprecated: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/nuget/reference/nuspec#iconurl

@loic-sharma
I believe it's not complete removal of icon-url, but we're replacing with icon, is it right?

Yep that's right @erdembayar!
