Improvement: Allow all FontAwesome icons for smart menu items

Currently, the FontAwesome icon picker which is shown within a smart menu items' settings only provides the FontAwesome icons which are mapped anywhere in Moodle core (i.e. which are returned by the get_core_icon_map() function).

However, there are more FontAwesome icons out there.

It would be great if the FontAwesome icon picker would, ideally, provide all FontAwesome icons at, at least, allow the admin to manually set FA icon identifiers like fa-building instead if filtering them out when the settings are saved.

We want this too please, the current font awesome picker is very limited and quite difficult to use manually entering the FA icon identifiers e.g. fa_building

It could fix #208 also. we use FA Pro and use our own custom icons also, so this would be a great feature for others in our position.

Just a note to say how much of an improvement this would be. We use font awesome icons across all our menu to act as visual cues for our users. I've just moved from some custom code to using the Smart menu function it's almost perfect for us apart from this, the icon picker is very limited, but would be fine if you could just overwrite it with any relevant font awesome classes to e.g.

Would be great to get this one moving.
