        This method returns the path to an object's icon. It is used 
        in the folder_contents view to generate an appropriate icon 
        for the items found in the folder.

        If the content item does not define an attribute named "icon"
        this method will return the path "/misc_/dtmldoc.gif", which is 
        the icon used for DTML Documents.

        If 'relative_to_portal' is true, return only the portion of
        the icon's URL which finds it "within" the portal;  otherwise,
        return it as an absolute URL.
