Description

Current Behavior

Version 8.0.10 does not work, if I downgrade to 7.4.0 the icons are copied.

Expected Behavior

When using ion-icon with stenciljs the icons should behave like they do with version 7+

Steps to Reproduce

Create a stenciljs project and add ionic, add any component that uses ionicons such as ion-icon and the icons are not copied to the build folder. There is only a empty svg folder.

Research direction
Investigate the build scripts in the 'scripts' directory or the Stencil configuration file (stencil.config.ts). Compare the copy task configuration between version 7.4.0 and 8.0.10. Look for any changes in how SVGs are copied. Check if there are any recent commits that modified the build process.
