Update outdated Copilot Chat icon reference in VS Code #46001
Description
Code of Conduct
- I have read and agree to the GitHub Docs project's Code of Conduct
What article on docs.github.com is affected?
What part(s) of the article would you like to see updated?
The article currently instructs users to “Open Copilot Chat by clicking the Copilot icon in the title bar of Visual Studio Code.”
In current versions of Visual Studio Code, the Copilot Chat icon in the title bar has changed from the one shown in the documentation. This can make the instructions confusing for users trying to follow the steps.
Additional information
Update the instruction to reflect the current VS Code UI. Users can easily identify the current Copilot Chat icon and open Copilot Chat without relying on an outdated UI reference.

Thanks @ashis-baral—it looks like we don't have an exact match under https://primer.style/octicons/. I'm happy for you to try changing this to pure prose, if that's something you'd like to do?

@subatoi I’ve opened a PR for this. Could you please check it? The icon matches the current VS Code icon by around 90%. I think this is close enough to keep.
