    Description

      https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qabstractfileiconprovider.html and https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qfileiconprovider.html have the same description.

      As seen at QTBUG-134239, both classes seem to do exactly the same thing on Windows + macOS, but not on Android + iOS.

       

      Suggestion
      Review these classes and see if QFileIconProvider is still needed. If not, deprecate QFileIconProvider and transfer relevant functionality to the "Abstract" class. Otherwise, document the different roles that they play.
