AppBarButton
AppBarButton is a Button that matches the expected style of bottom app bar buttons. (See the “App Bars” section for examples.)

→ Label—A simple string placed underneath the circle
→ Icon—The icon in the circle, represented by an interesting IconElement object that most of this section is dedicated to
→ IsCompact—A Boolean that can be set to false to hide the Label and reduce the AppBarButton’s padding
