Optimization: all UI icons collapsed into a single sprite

Description
I don't have a CSS mapped yet, but I did collapse the icons into a single sprite (all, except loading spinner). There is also a variety of online tools out there to map the sprite icons, so it's fairly easy to do.
But, need feedback first. Also if current layout of the sprite is ok.

Maxin Samuel there is also an ongoing attempt to switch the icon set to Font Awesome (#23980). As there are more icons available for plugin developers I think it's a good thing to back it, too. ;-)
Well, in this case, it's better to go with font icons, because fonts are vector information, which means it's scalable and also cheaper in size, there is also more of them.

I offer to close this issue so we focus on it's only related issue #23980 which seems like the best solution anyway :)

Closing.
As pointed out in #7792#note-6, CSS sprites are difficult to maintain.
