Request: Add the Zulip brand icons to the vendored Font Awesome sprite

Howdy from the Julia Discourse!

Zulip has now landed as a Font Awesome brand icon (7.2+). Core’s @fortawesome/fontawesome-free package is already on 7.3.1, but the sprite that gets served is still built from v6.6.0, so it seems fab-zulip cannot be enabled through the svg icon subset setting yet.

We’d like to get fab-zulip and fab-circle-zulip added to that vendored sprite, similarly to UX: update twitter icon for X, add threads & mastodon icons - Pull Request #26203 - discourse/discourse - GitHub (following the request in Add temporary Threads logo to current Font Awesome version). We’re happy to open a PR following that pattern, but I just wanted to check here first whether that is still the right way to go about it.

Thanks in advance for your guidance!

Now that you mention it, we should have a better process for keeping these up to date so these additions don’t need to be a special request and we don’t lag too far behind.

I’ll take a look and see what we can do, if you want to open a PR to add the icon in the meantime I can have a look and get it merged for you… following that previous pattern should be fine.
