This contains fixes for jagged/pixelated icons in system tray, or app list.
Screenshots here.

Also this contain many changes made to libcosmic/iced since Jul 13th. A lot of changes! But I have been running a modified version of cosmic-applets compiled with the latest libcosmic, that I keep updating locally, so I doubt there are any big regressions that I didn't notice.

A thorough QA may be justified.

Hello, I've been testing this on PopOS 24.04 since now this update has been pushed to the repos, and I've seen that for me, it seems like this isn't getting applied to the launcher and to the app library

Launcher:
Screenshot_2026-09-10_19-33-03

App Library
Screenshot_2026-09-10_19-30-30

As you can see from the screenshots there are still app's icons that are pixelated (like steam and brave).

This fixed the pixelated icons on the system tray and on the panel/dock, at least for me.

Yeah, those need separate PRs. I assumed some other PR will bring in the changes naturally, but nothing got merged there since.

There's an issue with text selection color in libcosmic now. When it's fixed I'll create PRs for those repos too.
