Build HiDPI icons components for Dep11

[danirabbit]

Looking at Our Dep11 components it seems that we only build packages for icons-64x64 and icons-128x128.

If possible, we should:

• [x] Build 64px@2 icons
• [x] Build 128px@2 icons
• [ ] Build 48px and 48px@2 icons

It looks like we already ship a config file that wants to pull the 64px@2 package and I've filed an issue against elementary/os to look for the 128px@2 icons.

Looks like the HiDPI for asgen was recently merged, and not released yet. We will want to wait for a GitHub release so we can build it on our server.

@btkostner The feature has been released with version 0.6.6

@danrabbit as far as I know, there is no configuration to enable 48px icons.

EDIT It's hard set in appstream-generator here: https://github.com/ximion/appstream-generator/blob/master/src/asgen/handlers/iconhandler.d#L55

Opened a new issue here: https://github.com/ximion/appstream-generator/issues/56

Since that issue seems stalled, shall we carry a patch to asgen that generates 48 and 48@2 icons?

[danirabbit]

@cassidyjames I'm not sure if that would also require a patch to libappstream. Probably better to wait a little bit and see if we can't discuss it more with Matthias

What's the current status of this issue?

Stalled and waiting for upstream movement
