'Add Icons' option for canvas elements

Propose to add options for setting up icons to different elements of the canvas

Use case or problem

Some files don’t have preview available, but I still want to understand what it does. Examples: excalidraw file, executable file shortcut, docx file etc.

Proposed solution

Make a button in context menu that allows to add icons. Icon can be added from any system file or from clipboard. Once icon is added, element won’t use preview, but will use icon that is fitted into element dimensions.

Current workaround (optional)

Insert image inside canvas note and link below
