[#112] User Favicon(.txt)

/favicon.txt

If I'm using a registered client certificate, then respond with my profile's emoji icon, i.e. "20 text/plain\r\n🐝"
If I am not authenticated, return some other emoji at admin's discretion

/favicon.txt?some_cool_user

Respond some_cool_user's profile emoji, i.e. "20 text/plain\r\n😎"

Rationale

Why not?
(Polite) Client authors could use it in novel ways
(Selfish) I want to integrate something like this into Rosy Crow

Thank you for coming to my TEDx talk.

As evidenced by the lack of favicon.txt support in Lagrange, I'm not a proponent of this convention. I feel it crosses the line of layering on complexity for not that much benefit, and as such it does not really fit in with the Gemini ethos.

That makes sense! I'll close this.
