Allow service icons at service level, not just application level

[Jeremy Bícha]

evolution-data-server-uoa 3.8.3-0ubuntu4 provides several different services and a single icon isn't sufficient to represent all of them. They don't want to use the evolution icon since EDS is more than just Evolution (it's also used by Thunderbird, GNOME Contacts, etc.). This was discussed at https://bugzilla.gnome.org/701964

Services provided by eds-uoa
---------------------------------------
google-calendar.service
google-contacts.service
google-gmail.service
yahoo-calendar.service
yahoo-mail.service

Currently, it appears that UOA only looks at the .desktop for an icon but evolution-data-server-uoa.desktop doesn't have an icon. However, /usr/share/accounts/services/google-calendar.service sets <type>calendar</type>
/usr/share/accounts/service_types/calendar.service-type sets <icon>x-office-calendar</icon>

I believe the current behavior for settings the service icon is something like:
1. Use the .desktop icon
2. If not set, don't show an icon at all. This makes the eds services look out of place.

Suggested improved behavior
1. Use an icon in the /services/*.service
2. If not set, fallback to the .desktop icon
3. If not set, fallback to the icon set by the corresponding service_types/*.service_type
4. Set a generic icon
