Use cute little "?" on the close buttons in conversation tabs. The stock icons make the tabs too large, and they look huuge, compared to the status icon and the text on the tab, even with all the style-editing to remove borders etc. We still use 'buttons', instead of event-boxes, so we don't have to capture mouse-events and do mouseover/mouseout effects ourselves. This change simply removes the use of the stock icon and uses a "?" label in the button. This looks and feels betterer. Refs #8727.
