Adding icon for web-google-chat

I think the centralization could be improved here.
My suggestion would be to do something like this (I took the orignal image from the app's official icon on Google Play):

Also, it helps if you generate the bitmaps for the icons you make by running src/render-apps-categories-bitmaps.py and include them in the pull request. Remember to close all instances of Inkscape before running the script, otherwise you may end up with a bunch of windows.

I also suggest adding the following symbolic links to your icon:
GoogleChat-chat.google.com.png
google-chat.png

For that, you just have to add the following lines to src/symbolic-apps-list and run src/create-symbolic-link-from-list.py

You also need to unhide the Baseplate layer, edit the icon-name with the text tool so it matches the icon's name, and hide the Baseplate layer again. The script to generate the bitmaps won't work if the names don't match.

Thank you @Hokiper for considering my contribution and for your assistance. I will make those changes.

Question: is there a guide I can follow going forward? I've contributed to Delta Icons before and they have a contribution guide that may help noobs like me 😅

There's no written set of contribution guidelines, although this is actually something that has been talked about a few times - I even offered to make one myself.
The main discouragement for writing something like that (for me at least, since that's why I haven't made it myself yet) is that there's some uncertainty about if the Mint-Y icon theme will still be the default in the near future.

But now that you mentioned it I'll bring that up with Clem just to see if he's still interested. If positive I should be making one on May's last week or so.

Hi, please run src/render-apps-categories-bitmaps.py (and correct any errors it reports), and add the generated png files to this PR.

Thanks
