This commit adds icons for a couple of established file formats with the .adf extension and different signatures. They're floppy images, not ISO, and not optical anything, so the old symlink wasn't really appropriate.

  • application/x-amiga-disk-format (fs-uae's ADF_NORMAL)
    Packaged in current Debian testing's shared-mime-info.

  • application/x-adf (fs-uae's ADF_EXT1)
    Packaged in current Debian testing's fs-uae.

There are a number of other disk formats out there that don't have MIME types that I can find. Some of them are generic disk dumps, others are very specific to the Amiga: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amiga_Disk_File

Not a lot we can do about the (prebuilt) WHDLoad format that's supported by some emulators. That's just a .lha archive without much regularity inside it, & no specific MIME type: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WHDLoad

Oh no, a gradient. I hope the aesthetics are OK here, and that "object on top of object" is valid Papirus style. If you really would prefer a flat logo, or a boing ball, I can do that. However that rainbow double tick on a purple background should frankly yell "Amiga 3.1 boot screen" to anyone who knows it, and it echoes the fs-uae icon plenty too. Perhaps more than the exiting Papirus icon does.

Looking at the upstream fs-uae icon, that also uses a pair of vertical gradients rather than the Papirus icon's rather odd choice of orange and green stripes. Let me know if you want me to update the the fs-uae icons to match this, or if you prefer that over this gradient.
