New source file/folder icons have reversed colors

Reported by cosmo...@gmail.com, Apr 5 2016

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/49.0.2623.110 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Open developer tools
2. Switch to source tab

What is the expected behavior?
Folder icons are yellow file icons are not yellow

What went wrong?
The folder icons are blue and the file icons are yellow.

On windows, this makes file icons look like folders and folder icons look not like folders.

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 49.0.2623.110  Channel: stable
OS Version: 6.1 (Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2)
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 21.0 r0

Widnows (and may other platforms) have traditionally used yellow icons for folders. Chrome should only use yellow for folder icons on these platforms. I see no reason chrome couldn't query the operating system for the system-default folder icon.

Thank you for the feedback.

However, we currently use both blue and yellow folder icons:
- We use yellow folders for those added to the DevTools Workspaces.
- We use blue folder icons for catalogues on the website.

I know what chrome does and it's wrong, that's why I filed the bug.
The folders are in fact yellow-ish. The blue icons are only used for the URL path tokens. I think it is consistent with Windows.
