The missing desktop icons are meant to be provided by 'nautilus-desktop'
in 18.04. So that sounds like a symptom of the regression rather than a
cause.
Since the shell clearly mostly loaded before freezing, the first thing I
recommend is to delete any local extensions:
cd ~/.local/share/gnome-shell
rm -rf extensions
and then log in again. Because local extensions are not supported by
Ubuntu and yet they have the power to do anything to the shell including
break it.
