reduce svg size

Problem

In the html output, svg codes make up 40%-60% of the total file size.

Suggested Solution

It might be a better solution to use icon font instead.

From a bit of research, it looks like an icon font is not a possible solution here. Icon fonts are monocolor, but they really need to be multicolored to be recognizable.

I have a possible partial resolution for this from #2335, where the <use> element references an external file. This doesn't work when the file is loaded locally, however, due to CORS. Losing support for file:// is something I really don't want.
