Themed App icons for third party apps

A lot of people complained about the lack of themed third party icons in Android 12 and 12L, but now developers can supply a monochromatic app icon and a tweak to make the app icon adaptive. It will be initially on Pixel devices, but Google is working with other OEMs to bring them to more devices.

Update: The feature works, Mishaal was wrong on this one

Known issues in Android 13 (so far)
Android 13 Release Notes

Android platform
• In some cases, suspending the device while a USB-C headset is plugged in causes the device to crash and restart.
• On some devices, bright sunlight prevents the fingerprint reader from authenticating the user. (we assume that this is about the Pixel 6 & 6 Pro and their under display scanners)
• In some cases, the Android system intelligence process consumes a large amount of battery power.

Apps
• In the Camera app, switching to Lens mode causes the camera preview to display a black screen.
• In GBoard, long pressing on backspace won't delete any letters, just single taps. (kudos to @AndroidAsh for the tip)
