Feature: New icon picker field

[JoryHogeveen]

Issue: #4298

It will add a composer dependency for WP Icon Picker library: https://github.com/ineagu/wp-icon-picker

TODO:

• [ ] Selection of which icon libraries are available for a field
  • Implement this globally or per-field?
• [ ] Other field options?
• [ ] field::display() implementation
• [ ] field::ui() implementation
• [ ] Test with front-end forms
• [ ] Other tests?
• [ ] Check storage (@sc0ttkclark) Currently stores as an array ( array( 'type' => '', 'icon' => '' ) )

[sc0ttkclark]

Why store type and icon? Why not just store the type and get the associated type with the icon selected?

[JoryHogeveen]

That is how wp-icon-picker handles it.

type is the font library prefix (fa, dashicons, etc) and icon is the actual icon class. In case of an SVG image the type => 'svg' and icon is the attachment ID.

[sc0ttkclark]

Can we store formatted separated by pipe "|"?

Like "dashicons|the-icon"

[JoryHogeveen]

I don't see why not. A space would work even better I guess.

Is there any developement or a roadmap to add this icon picker in Pods?
