[Bug 1931582] Re: Add LOGO to /etc/os-release

I meant it's unclear if what sort of logo it should be. Square image
only? Text+logo as on plymouth? The GNOME settings upstream discussion
mention text and black variants...

After discussing with Robert it seems that's intended for the 'simple'
logo, so squared icon. Unsure if the variants are standardized but the
GNOME ticket lists logo-text/logo-dark/logo-text-dark so maybe should
also be provided

Title:
  Add LOGO to /etc/os-release

Status in base-files package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in base-files package in Debian:
  New

Bug description:
  /etc/os-release can provide a logo file, this is now used by gnome-
  control-center to show the logo into the info panel.

  If ubuntu would provide its logo name in such file we would be able to
  remove the downstream patch that forces the usage of
  /usr/share/pixmaps/ubuntu-logo-icon.png

  GNOME Control Center, as of version 41, can look for variations of the named LOGO. So we should offer those variations if possible too.
