Custom render function

import { getIcon, makeIcon } from '@cheshirecat/svgi'

const iconObj = getIcon('ico', 'arrow-right')
console.log('iconObj =', iconObj)
/* iconObj = { width: 256, height: 512, paths: ['M224.3 273l-136 136c-9.4 9.4-24.6 9.4-33.9 0l-22.6-22.6c-9.4-9.4-9.4-24.6 0-33.9l96.4-96.4-96.4-96.4c-9.4-9.4-9.4-24.6 0-33.9L54.3 103c9.4-9.4 24.6-9.4 33.9 0l136 136c9.5 9.4 9.5 24.6.1 34z'] } */

const html = makeIcon('ico', 'arrow-right')
...

The rendered SVG element can then be easily customized with CSS.
