Rowling theme: Update the social menu option to include support for latest social media icons like Thread, X

[marutim]

Rowling theme has the option to add a Social Menu which automatically displays links to your social media profiles as icons

Supported social media icons do not include new social media icons like Thread, X

If you add the latest social media link for Threads or X, the default link icon appears

You can check this screenshot for reference:

Steps to replicate

• Please activate the Rowling theme
• Go to WordPress.com > My Sites > Appearance > Customize > Menus > Social menus
• Add a new social menu link for X or Threads and check the front end of the site

I can replicate the issue so marking the feature request as triaged

The Social Menu in Rowling is not the same as the Social Links Menu (confusing, I know). AFAIK Social Menu is a legacy Jetpack feature supported by some of our classic themes, including Rowling. Any updates to the social media services would have to be made in Jetpack, but I don't know if it still receives any updates.
