[UIFe] Hippo wallpapers

[Iain Lane]

The official Hirsute Hippo wallpapers, produced by the Canonical design team. As we got them past UI freeze (which happened on March 18), this requires a UI freeze exception.

Per instructions¹ I talked to Gunnar (~gunnarhj) on #ubuntu-desktop on IRC, who is an administrator of both the documentation and translation teams, and he acknowledged the update. He wrote:

  « No problem. We don't have any screenshots which would be affected anyway. »

In addition to the default wallpaper provided by the Canonical design team, two images were picked by members from the community team and the release team:

More to come, maybe?

Please share the svgs and the mascot by itself.

I reset the status to New so that the release team can review the UI freeze exception request.

[Łukasz Zemczak (sil2100)]

Yes, let's proceed! We'd love that for the Beta! UIFe approved.
