Consider switching security coverage icon to something similar to D.O.

Problem/Motivation

In #3294608: Consider replacing "actively maintained" icon β†’ , user @mmjvb mentioned an interest in the security icon going back to green.

It seems like there could be benefits to having it match the iconography of D.O., but there's also the appeal of providing a fresh look to things. Either way, I didn't want that comment to be lost in that issue (which will likely have landed by the time this is read), so I'm creating a dedicated issue where this can at least be discussed. Perhaps other people have thoughts about going green? We can discuss it here.

    Taking a look at this at MidCamp 2023. I agree with the above that it should be green. I experimented with just changing the line color of the existing icon, but it looked way too similar to the "Compatible with your Drupal installation" icon, which is a white checkmark inside a green circle on the admin/modules/browse/ctools page (for example):

    Changing it to the solid green shield like on drupal.org looks a lot better, and this would be my recommendation:

    Note that drupal.org uses a black icon with a green filter over it: filter: opacity(0.5) drop-shadow(0 0 0 #7cbc48) brightness(2). We could do it that way, but I say just make the icon itself green (#7cbc48). The current icon is images/blue-security-shield-icon.svg so the file name will need to be changed along with the icon itself. This file name is also referenced in the code itself, so a find-and-replace will be needed. Finally, there also needs to be a white version of the icon to replace images/blue-security-shield-icon--dark-color-scheme.svg.

    Those two greens don't look great together. I'm not sure if we should borrow the two greens from .messages instead, maybe? Though I get that we should be consistent across d.o and the Project Browser, so I am in favor of this change.
