The classic style is decidedly lower contrast than the default
style, so the high-contrast variant could prove really useful
here. However for now, just override the default icon style as
in the default session.

Some default values differ between classic and normal sessions. We
used to implement this by overriding the shell's default values in
mini-extensions (or more precisely: reversing the shell's overrides).
Use a mode-specific overridesSchema instead, which has the advantage
that settings defaults will not change unexpectedly when extensions
are disabled/enabled (for instance during screen locks).

Classic mode should be visually distinct from the normal session,
so provide a mode-specific stylesheet which looks closer to the
familiar GNOME2 default theme.

The Makefile had two rules by which it could possibly have generated the
intermediate .in file (on the way from .in.in to .session) and it picked
the one that didn't contain the substitution for @libexecdir@.
Consolidate the rules into one that does all the needed substitutions.
