Refreshes #10647, resolving merge conflicts with trunk and addressing outstanding review feedback.

Note on "Published" label: Trunk changed the built-in labels to "Published post / Published page" 61555. This PR uses $post_type_object->labels->name for CPTs, which does not include "Published".

Testing Instructions:

  1. Install the test plugin from this gist:
    It registers three CPTs: book (dashicon, at_a_glance=true), movie (SVG icon, at_a_glance=true), and secret_type (at_a_glance=false).
  2. Publish some posts of each type.
  3. Check Dashboard → At a Glance:
    • Books and Movies counts should appear with their icons
    • Secret Types should NOT appear
  4. Verify built-in Posts and Pages still work correctly.
