This commit introduces 8 more variants of the .ICO file, embeds the
right ones into WindowsTerminal.exe, and adds code that will select the
most appropriate icon at runtime.
Since we're a Centennial application, the "application" icon inside our
package isn't used by the shell for the taskbar thumbnails or the
Alt-Tab window.

This is the "2nd fix."

This commit adds image assets for High Contrast mode
Tagging this issue so it contains a nice list of all the recent HC
fixes: #5360
I made several changes to DHowett's script and added it to the repo:
* Add support for generating high contrast icons
* Add the ability to easily edit the "intermediate" (previously "zbase")
files for manual hinting
* Appease the spellchecker
I created new SVGs for HC mode. There's one SVG for both Black and White
modes -- I just invert the colors. Then I manually hinted the generated
bitmaps for the production icons. I didn't bother hinting the Dev/Pre
ones, so the text does get unreadable at small sizes.
View the original images in #6915.
