I happen to already be using a child theme of that theme — specifically, Speculate.

So what do I do specifically to modify the file that generates that menu to use SVGs instead?

Is/are there link(s) you could give me to explain how to do this (or to figure *out* how to do it)?

Okay, this is making a lot more sense now; thanks much. I know some computer coding stuff compared to the general population, but not compared to actual programmers and coders. So I am able to figure out a lot of this as I go along, as long as I ask questions such as in this thread.

This Genericon font you mention has some of the icons I would like to use, but not all of them. You say it is also possible to use my own images too. What coding procedure(s) do I need to know/use to do that?

In other words, I want to upload images to the media folder and then make those images the icons.

Social Warfare is not relevant to this particular issue — that plugin is for different purposes. (I use it specifically to add share buttons at the bottom of blog posts.)

I would like to be able to add custom icons. You may notice that the last three social link icons specifically are smaller, independent, less used social networking platforms, and so for them in particular I need to be able to add custom icons/images.
