Resolves #929.
### Description
This PR updates the route markers and context menu icons to use standard navigation metaphors, replacing the previous "media player" style icons (triangle/square) that were causing user confusion.
* **Map Markers (`_markers.html.erb`):** Updated the internal SVG paths for the start and end markers. The start marker now uses a "navigation arrow" (cursor) and the end marker uses a "flag".
* **Context Menu (`contextmenu.js`):** Updated the Bootstrap icons to `bi-cursor` and `bi-flag` to ensure the menu options visually match the new map markers.
**Screenshots:**
