Subject: Fix poor quality application icons seen when the game is running. Add
 back 8-bit icon files alongside files including both 8-bit and high quality
 32-bit versions. Use the high quality icon files for resource files includes,
 and the low quality ones for in-game SDL.

+The "foo8.ico" files are 8-bit depth only, while the "foo.ico" files
+contain full 32-bit versions, scaled to different sizes and with proper
+alpha masks (as well as the 8-bit versions).  The 8-bit versions are
+used when setting the icon within SDL, as SDL under Windows displays
+full color icons in a very poor quality.  The full-color versions are
+used in the resource files.
