feat(material icon): Make Material Symbols the default icons font #33744

Description

@hb20007

Feature Description

Material Symbols was published in 2022 as a replacement to the older Material icons font. The new font is documented on the Google Fonts website where one can see all the icons and styles in an easily searchable way. The old icons have no such documentation.

However, the old icon font remains the default one, and we need to set the fontSet input on every <mat-icon> to use the new font. I propose making the new font the default one.
