Summary of the new feature/enhancement

Using environment variables for icon path is currently not working.

Current behavior

"icon" : "%SystemRoot%\Installer\{90CBDC15-F4FE-49D2-A245-EC066B70845F}\PowerShellExe.ico"

cause the terminal to crash.

Expected behavior

This should work and be equivalent to

"icon" : "C:\\Windows\\Installer\\{90CBDC15-F4FE-49D2-A245-EC066B70845F}\\PowerShellExe.ico"
