Title: Octicon-based favicons for tabs

While playing with https://github.com/atom/settings-view/issues/80 today, I though it might be :cool: to have a simple way to add octicons to tabs (as favicons):

For example, those would be helpful when looking for "special" tabs, like settings and search results. The [SettingsView](https://github.com/atom/settings-view/blob/master/lib/settings-view.coffee) and [ResultsPaneView](https://github.com/atom/find-and-replace/blob/master/lib/project/results-pane.coffee) would then just be extended with a `getIcon` method which returns the name of the octicon to be used (e.g. `tools` and `search`).

Thoughts? :doughnut: If this makes sense, I'd look into adding some tests. :cactus:
