The copyright holder of those icons does not, AFAIK, grant restricted

That makes those works non-free by my reading of the Social Contract.
IANAL but the icons are not part of the work (the browser); they are
trademarks for purposes of identification of an integration with a
third-party service; they don't have to be DFSG-free, just
redistributable by Debian (and possibly not even that because this usage
could fall into fair use, as long as there is no claim or appearance
that the third-party endorses the work).
Best regards.
