Favicon on open tab does not update when site's favicon updates

monkey34

Steps to reproduce:

Open a site (for example, Discord or Gmail) that updates its favicon depending on the state of the application.
Using Discord as an example, when there is new, unread content, the tab's favicon will show a red badge (see images below).
In Orion, the tab's favicon does not change from its default state.

Expected behavior:
The tab's favicon should update to use the new favicon.

I can confirm the same issue with Gmail unread mail count not updating in Orion wether the tab is pinned or not.

Worth mentioning that Safari suffers from the same issue as well.
