Update WT's icon at runtime to match high-contrast as applicable (#7971) ...

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.

To quote J. Tippet,

... and to quote Michael Ratanapintha,

This is the "2nd fix."
