Bug Description

After each $snap refresh or an auto update the icons on Arc Menu favorite list is being disappeared. This behavior has not ever happened to any deb based program which I upgraded with command line or Ubuntu software center or even calibre (which I upgrade within Terminal and a shell file).
I saw this in these apps:
chromium-browser
gnome-calculator
gnome-system-monitor
code

I don't know for sure how the Arc menu works, but I'm guessing it creates entries with an icon referring to the Icon entry in the desktop file for the snap, which for chromium (and all snaps) contains the versioned revision:

    $ grep Icon /var/lib/snapd/desktop/applications/chromium_chromium.desktop
    Icon=/snap/chromium/952/chromium.png

why not setting Icon=/snap/chromium/current/chromium.png
instead of Icon=/snap/chromium/952/chromium.png ?
