The icon that is displayed in the tab for each of the pages needs to be updated.

We likely can just use the same image that shows in the sideBar.

I have updated all the Orion pages to use an icon that matches the icon from the new OrionIconFont. This is the icon displayed in the browser tab, in the history, in bookmarks, etc. etc.

I used the six icons: 
repository.png
shell.png
sites.png
search.png
edit.png
user.png

Rather than create new ICO files, I have updated each page to use the standard HTML5 link icon attribute and the existing png files.

<link rel="icon" href="/images/edit.png" type="image/png">

This link icon attribute accepted by all browsers except IE9. 

For IE9, this attribute is ignored and we default to using /favicon.ico, which is what most of the pages, except for the editor, were using before this update. The link icon attribute is supported in IE11.

I removed all the obsolete ICO files as well.
