Support more attributes in shortcodes for icon tag compatibility about fontawesome HOT 3 OPEN

Regarding your request of not using shortcodes, this is asked in there already

• #30

is it possible to style the icon in the same way as I have above while using shortcode only?

Currently there is no way to pass any attributes using shortcode. Only a few is supported

Alternatively, is there a way to ensure fontawesome dependencies get loaded to a document whether or not a shortcode is found?

See #30 for a wild trick of display: none

Otherwise, don't use the shortcode, and directly use the fontawesome dependencies using include-in-header and some raw HTML or use the Lua version of adding dependencies as mentioned in #30 (comment)

#30 should solve your problem. so I'll rephrase this issue as supporting more options

Initially it appears that using the HTML syntax does not work. However, including at least one quarto syntax icon in the document allows both syntax types to render as expected.

This is because if you don't use the shortcode, then the fontawesome dependencies are not loaded into your document. The HTML deps are only inserted in document header when {{< fa ... >}} is used - same for LaTeX dependencies.

If the shortcodes is not used, the the extension does nothing.

I see, so would is it possible to style the icon in the same way as I have above while using shortcode only?
