[openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website] Context menu icons are inconsistent with icons used elsewhere (Issue #6485)

[Andy Allan]

gravitystorm created an issue (openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website#6485)

Our [updated context menu](https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/pull/6410) ships with icons for the various menu items. However, these are inconsistent with the icons used elsewhere in the UI. We should consider whether they can be unified - either by changing the menu, or changing the icons used elsewhere, or perhaps both. Here's the list of inconsistencies:

## Directions

The directions icons used in the sidebar and on the map show pins with play and stop icons. The context menu has a pin with a circle for the start, and a flag for the finish.

## Add a Note

The Add a Note menu item has a pencil, the map button has a speech bubble with a plus sign, and the map icon is a blue pin with a plus sign

## Query features

The Query features menu item is a question mark in a circle, the map button is an arrow with a small question mark. Note that the cursor also changes (using CSS `cursor: help`) but this is platform specific - some platforms show the arrow and small question mark, others show different icons.
