[GFX] [2.0.19] New copper wire icon has bad contrast when used in tips&tricks

Here seen in German, but the colors should be independent of locale

To add onto that, it's very strange that copper wire doesn't look anything like copper. I can understand if it's intentionally not copper-colored so colorblind people can more easily tell it apart from red and green wires, but there should at least be some middle ground where it's somewhat coppery and not just a hollow outline.

See e.g. 121481 Please, please change the experimental icons in 2.0.18 further.

I don't care about it looking like copper. This might as well be renamed into "electric cabling" because there is no more context for the material it is made of, it is no longer an item, and indeed should not be confused with "copper wire" which you need for green circuits. I only care about the visual contrast in the tips&tricks, which currently, is really really bad.

I just noticed another related thing. After clicking any of the wire shortcuts, you still get an icon of the old items in your hand … (here red wire)

Not sure if this is intended … but considering the new icons were meant to be more distinct, this feels like an oversight.
