Section: utils
Description: Terminal icon definitions for Kida template engine.

Provides an ``IconSet`` proxy that templates use to emit Unicode or ASCII icons.
Each icon is returned as a ``Styled`` string so it bypasses ANSI sanitization.

Usage in templates::

    {{ icons.check }} All tests passed
    {{ icons.arrow_r }} Next step

Thread-Safety:
    ``IconSet`` is immutable after construction. Safe for concurrent access.
