Site identity images? Do you mean to say default images for social media, ect?
I think your best bet is to use something like Yoast SEO (Free). If you install that plugin and go to the settings > social settings area (something like that), you can upload fallback images for your site’s pages. Then it’ll typically send whatever your featured image is, if available.

No, I mean the Site Identity/Site Icon feature from 4.3:

That file was saved in a strange place on my setup. Was wondering, if I can change the location/folder.
Got it. Which theme are you running? I typically see Favicon icon upload in Theme Options.
I’m not sure about the filter, the codex suggests that a common way is to call the theme uri function, which may make it harder to use a filter to modify, but it could still be do-able in theory.
I’m assuming your just trying to add a favicon, or series of favicon files based on device requirements. If there isn’t something in theme options, this plugin may be worth trying. That’d also save you from adding/supporting custom code: https://wordpress.org/plugins/custom-favicon/
Haven’t tested it myself so I’m not sure how it works, just found it after searching.
I uploaded a favicon, it works fine. I am using the “Custom Upload Dir” plugin, so my uploads are sorted a bit better. The site icon files were uploaded ignoring the settings in the “CUD” settings. I was wondering, if I can change the upload location for those generated files myself with a filter or something. So for instance make it save those generated favicon files to:
uploads/favicon/

How do I change base upload folder?
Since WP 3.5, by a setting in wp-config.php:
define('UPLOADS', WP_CONTENT_DIR.'/your-folder');
Is that it? If not, maybe try posting on the plugin’s support board. They look like they’re actively developing and looking for feedback.
If you don’t want WP_CONTENT_DIR , This should help you find the conventions to place it:
