Resolve favicons through Google's s2 service
Pointing the renderer at the site's own `/favicon.ico` was producing GPUI image-cache errors on every other tab — notion.com redirected across origins, sites shipped multi-image `image/x-icon` blobs the PNG/WebP decoder couldn't read, hosts 404'd. Each one logged a noisy `ERROR gpui::asset_cache: Failed to load asset` line. Switch `UrlText::favicon_url` to `https://www.google.com/s2/favicons?domain=<host>&sz=64`. Google's endpoint normalises every response to PNG, follows redirects on its side, and serves a `_/` globe glyph for sites without a favicon at all — same URL shape every browser dev-tools panel already shows for "favicon" so the fetch is uniformly succeeding.
