This one is a little more complicated than the easy ones. FA7 ships woff2 only (drops eot, svg, ttf, woff); backward-compatible @font-face aliases for "Font Awesome 5" names are included in the CSS, so existing fas/far/fab icon class references continue to work.

I followed the existing pattern of copying the regular and minified version available from public source.
Perhaps another pattern like in 3869aa6 would make easier to review.

Hey @fidergo-stephane-gourichon, thanks for this PR. From a first check most icons look good. The once I'm not so happy with I will work through.
