 At the moment "site icon" feature in customizer is accessible only to
 administrators with "manage_options" capability which I believe is a
 mistake. Since "edit_theme_options" lets users see and use visual settings
 in the customizer they should also be able to modify "site icon".

 In most cases I don't give my clients access to settings that can change
 how wordpress works but I want to let them tweak how the site looks. Site
 icon is one of those things and really shouldn't be accessible only to top
 administrators with manage options cap.
