How do I query for terms via their icons?

With WordPress’s get_terms() function, the same as usual, but with an additional meta_query argument according the WP_Meta_Query specification:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Meta_Query

$terms = get_terms( 'category', array(
    'depth'      => 1,
    'number'     => 100,
    'parent'     => 0,
    'hide_empty' => false,

    // Query by icon using the "wp-term-meta" plugin!
    'meta_query' => array( array(
        'key'   => 'icon',
        'value' => 'dashicons-networking'
    ) )
) );
