Improvements

• IconHelper: Allow global and icon set attributes to get merged in with each render() call.

Fixes

• Fixed icon name handling for title in Icon::render().
• Fixed FontAwesome5 icon collector to work again with SVGs. Also added YML support.

Improvements

Localized datetime formatting

Added FrozenTime::formatLocalized() for PHP 8.1+ safe localized output of date(time) values.

Font icons

Added IconHelper::render() as way to display font icons now, deprecating FormatHelper::icon().
It now is able to serve the following icons out of the box and even side-by-side using prefixing (prefix:icon-name):

• FontAwesome v4/v5/v6
• BootstrapIcons
• Material
• Feather

But based on its DI nature, you can register any Icon class inside and serve any custom or even own icon font this way now.
Each Icon class has full control over the rendering of the HTML.

Using IconHelper::names() you can get a list of all font icons available in your PHP code.

Tip: Use IdeHelperExtra plugin to get full autocomplete for the icon names as input for render($name).

Fixes

Fixed Bitmasked behavior "contain" filtering to work with more than one value.
Before it always used the exact combination, whereas an OR of each value is correct for most use cases.
Also added containMode as and if one wants to use exact combination of values to be found.
