[MinimalFooter] Add Instagram to `socialLinks` about brand HOT 6 CLOSED

We can safely ignore the size recommendation and use our defined sizing scale instead. This way, we keep things predictable, maintain good visual rhythm and consistent alignment with the surrounding elements. The Instagram glyph is perfectly legible at 24px.

Fun fact: Meta uses the Instagram glyph at 21px on their own website.

Im in agreement with this @JoshBowdenConcepts 👍 .

Can we keep all the icons at 24px? Making all of them at 29px makes the logo area unbalanced.

• The 29px makes sense with Instagram but is arbitrary with our patterns. Octicons for instance has its bigger size at 24px: https://primer.style/design/components/icon#sizes
• We already increased the size compared to the ones in dotcom, which uses 22px, so the difference will be bigger.

Actual glyph size at 24px:

Thank you all for your feedback!
@JoshBowdenConcepts we'd like to go with @danielguillan and @josepmartins recommendation and keep all the icons at 24px 👍🏽

@rezrah @raytalks just because this was on my mind this addition does follow the Instagram guidelines mostly except for the following issue.

• A minimum size ensures that the impact and legibility of the glyph are not compromised in the application. Always maintain their set proportions and never show the glyph smaller than 29x29 pixels.

We could solve this by increasing the size of the glyphs for all our icons at this time. Would this be a viable solution or should we reach out to design? Currently, our Icons are sitting around 24px so this would not be that large of a change.

Great question, I'd like to check with design.
