ARC: investigate ARC Welder problems with adaptive icons

Project Member Reported by elijahtaylor@chromium.org, Aug 23 2017 
Android O introduces a new icon concept: https://developer.android.com/guide/practices/ui_guidelines/icon_design_adaptive.html

ARC Welder looks like it is not handling the change well and it breaks the icon scraping we're doing.

I created a simple sample app that demonstrates the problem.  The attached APK includes an Android O adaptive icon and backwards compat icons.  When you load the APK into ARC Welder, it shows a broken link instead of the app icon.  The output file does install and run in ARC but the installed app has a generic default icon.

I've discovered that I can simply open the zip file produced by ARC Welder, replace the icon.png found inside with the proper app icon, and re-zip it to resolve the issue.
