Ubuntu's firefox and thunderbird ship their app icons in

Please move them to /usr/share/icons/hicolor/*/apps/ instead so that

Original Report
---------------
I am filing this against Thunderbird, even though it also concerns another
package (GNOME Software).
Essentially, using a freshly installed Ubuntu GNOME 17.04, Thunderbird
is not available in GNOME Software (the default software app for this
flavour). You cannot find it via search or the packages browser.
The only way to install it is via apt-get and even then it doesn't
show in Software (see attached picture).
