   Of course the logo is covered under a license. I can only speak for germany, 
if I don't give you a license to use my work, than can't use it. I don't need 
to do anything to protect it. I'll assume, that it is similar in other 
countries. That is independed of trademark law, which from my POV in this case 
does not even apply, as the icon only symbolizes the application the file 
belongs to.
   
   I'll make a sample. Consider font-awesome:
   
   https://github.com/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome/blob/master/svgs/brands/npm.svg
   
   The file is covered by the CC-BY-4.0 license:
   
   https://github.com/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome#license
   
   So we could render that, add attribution for it to the apache notice file 
and be done with it.
   
   For a list of acceptable licenses, please see the apache legal faq:
   Good: https://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html#category-a
   Problematic, but possible: 
https://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html#category-b
