Folder View

SUMMARY
File previews / icons do not work for `.desktop` files, when the associated icon is SVG.
PNGs work as expected.

2. Create a .desktop file associated with an svg icon in that Folder View folder

OBSERVED RESULT
The "generic" icon is used.

EXPECTED RESULT
The correct svg icon to be used.

Qt Version: 5.15.2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
1. png icons work, as expected
2. Both desktop and panel modes are affected
2. It also happens in 'Application Launcher > Places > History' and 'Application Menu > Recent Files'
