 Undo and Redo icons are not consistent throughout the interface

 -   **Severity:** Low
 -   **Affected Populations:**
     -   Cognitively Impaired
 -   **Platform(s):**
     -   All / Universal
 -   **Components affected:**
     -   Edit Media


 #### Issue description


 On the Edit Media page, there are various icon buttons for performing
 actions to the selected media image, along with "Undo" and "Redo"
 buttons.

 These two buttons use different icons than the "Undo" and "Redo"
 buttons in the Editor Top Bar.

 Ideally these buttons' icons would be consistent with the ones in the
 Editor Top Bar, especially since these icons look like Rotate icons
 (causing the actual Rotate buttons to require more complex glyphs to
 appear more clearly as Rotate-the-image), while the Editor Top Bar icons
 do not look like Rotate buttons.


 #### Remediation Guidance


 Use the same icons for the "Undo" and "Redo" buttons as are used in
 the Editor Top Bar.


 #### Relevant standards
