The easy solution would be not to do anything special right now, besides a
configuration option to switch badges on and off in the UI. (Whereas I see
usage of Wikibase outside of WMF, I have trouble seeing the sitelinks
features and the badges being used widely, and I would refrain from
spending too much time on refining that)

In the long run, it seems reasonable to create configurations for:
* switching badges off and on
* letting badges be selected from a specific set or from the set of all
items
* either provide a mapping of items to icons or a property to be used to
find the icon from the item

But this can be developed iteratively over time, as configuration options,
and only when there is actually a use case for it in some project. Until
then, let us avoid complexity and creating technical debt in the form of
unused features.
