One downside of specifying favicons in HTML is that it doesn't work for pages like HTML and SVG inscriptions, where we don't control the HTML. On those pages, the non-SVG favicon, which doesn't adjust to the user's theme, will be displayed.
To work around this, this PR uses user agent sniffing when /favicon.ico is requested to serve a PNG to Safari, and an SVG to all other browsers.
