Fixed spawn menu icons for Portal and Portal 2 categories

Description
What is this?
This fix corrects the icons for categories in the spawn menu sections related to Portal and Portal 2.

Why is this necessary?
Garry's Mod has built-in support for icons for categories in the spawn menu sections, which makes navigation more convenient and visually organized. However, the icons for the Portal and Portal 2 series often work incorrectly: they disappear, or are completely missing in the right places, even if the games are installed and correctly indicated. This was very annoying. To fix this issue, I created this fix, which adds full and correct icon support for all categories in all sections of the spawn menu. The game will no longer have problems displaying icons related to the Portal and Portal 2 series of games.

How many icons does this fix add?
Currently, the fix adds 18 icons for 18 categories. Support is available for both the main game titles and mods, as well as related games.

  • Portal
  • Portal 2
  • Aperture Science
  • Aperture Laboratories
  • Aperture Tag
  • Portal Stories: Mel
  • Portal: Revolution
  • Portal Reloaded
  • Thinking with Time Machine
  • Portal 2: Confinement
  • Portal: Forbidden Testing Tracks
  • Rexaura
  • Portal 2 - The Final Hours
  • Aperture Desk Job
  • Aperture Hand Lab
  • Portal 2 Sixense Perceptual Pack
  • Portal with RTX
  • Portal: Prelude RTX

h1] How does it work? [/h1]
If any add-on uses the above categories, the corresponding icon is automatically added to them. This add-on won't break the game if for some reason you don't have these categories; in that case, the mod simply does nothing. However, if any add-on uses at least one of these categories, this fix will automatically replace the default icon with the appropriate one, placing it to the left of the category name.

Are there any requirements?
This addon doesn't require any additional content. The only issue that might arise is an icon conflict: if another addon uses its own icon for categories, the game will attempt to use the icon it last loaded, but otherwise, there shouldn't be any issues.

Will I update this?
At the moment, I don't see a need for it. If something happens that requires a fix for this addon, it's entirely possible in the future. But that's not certain.
