Feature request: move icons to preferences

Hi,

Thank you for this handy plugin.

I would love to change the window/file icon in the quick panel. My font doesn't has the default characters, so it show up as the question mark.

Feature request: more flexible diff command

Hi, I would like to propose to change external_tool_path to something like:

{
  "diff_command": ["cmd", "arg1", "arg2", "$1", "$2", "$3"]
}

It yields two benefits:

• We can feed the buffer at any place in the command. Sometime the external tool require additional flag before the filename. For example: diff --file1 before.json --file2 after.json
• We can look for how many $num argument in the command and show the buffer selector multiple time. It help in case we want 3-way merging for example.

We can extend the toolkit with multiple diff commands:

{
  "diff_commands": [
    {
      "name": "Diff with VS Code",
      "command": ["code", "--diff", "$1", "$2"]
    },
    {
      "name": "3-way Merge with VS Code",
      "command": ["code", "--diff", "$1", "$2", "$3"]
    }
  ]
}

I'm not sure if it's feasible as the command name is generate dynamically at run time.
