KDE 4 Icon Transition

KDE 4 needs to get a new icon theme (Oxygen) and at the same time transition to use the names specified in the icon-name spec. The spec is mostly incomplete at the moment so we will have to define much on it.

We have a database of old names to new names (URL available on request to jriddell)

Merge the current icon-name spec names into the database
sort out the rest of the icons with nicer names and status (new icon, new use for old icon, obsolete icon)
run s/old/new/ over the KDE codebase to change the names in the sources
move crystal icons to kdeartwork, renamed
rename all the oxygen files, and put into kdelibs
fill in the gaps with monochrome so it's obvious what still needs to be drawn
