### 2 new icon sets

This is something I work in shadow since many months now, legacy png only icons deserved a refresh. I also like to draw in my spare time, so most icons are complete creation, using Inkscape.

This 5.9 introduce 2 new icon sets:
- 1 colorful in SVG, named Default
- 1 symbolic, mostly inspired by material design ion style

The new colorful svg set will be the default.
Go to the preferences to change it, or toggle the symbolic, or revert back to the legacy set.

### New scheduling options

The scheduling function was improved to enable recurrence like 'Last Monday', 'First Friday', and so on.
The design was also changed so that we are close to what you can observe in other tools.

### New pending status transaction

A new pending status was created for this new version.
This will ease having a specific workflow when you import some new transactions, but also enables to mark added transaction manually that could break your balance, because they are inserted in the past, and so needs a review before being part of the flow.
