Add step type icons and inline name editing

- Add icons module with programmatically drawn icons:
  - Speech bubble for prompt steps
  - Code brackets </> for code steps
  - Arrow icons for input/output nodes
- Display icons in list view next to step names
- Display icons in flow view node headers
- Add inline name editing in flow view via property_changed signal
- Sync name changes from flow view to tool model and list view
