image of the media controls not using provided icon

With the latest iOS 16 beta, if a web app is saved to the home screen and is using MediaSession API, media player on the lock screen will use an empty icon for the "source".

The Web App is served with an app-manifest that provides icons. Those icons are picked up by the browser.


Steps to reproduce:

- Have iOS 16 beta 2 installed
- Visit https://startrack-ng.web.app/browse and save the web app to the home screen.
- Load the home screen app
- Tap any "album" being displayed
- Tap the "play" button
- Lock the device so that media is being played from the previous action

You'll see the lock screen media controls will show the album art work, as well as a blank App icon in the bottom.

Should this icon be sourced from the app manifest? 
If so, is there a specific icon size needed?

Artwork is missing

It seems like on iOS 16.1.1 the whole Artwork is missing!

The cause of this bug is outside of WebKit, so resolving as MOVED.
