How to parse icon resources in dll

[ahaoboy]

The following links are often used to display ico in Windows. Pelite can parse icons in exe, but does not support dll.

c:/WINDOWS/system32/shell32.dll,-8508

C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Common Files\\Microsoft Shared\\MSEnv\\VSLauncher.exe,-105

It's been a while but I remember this being more complicated than I expected. The different sizes are in different places and need to be stitched together as a .ico file. It's not so simple to read them in a usable format.

Oh you can look at the examples/extract-icons.rs to see how I ended up extracting them. Does that help?

This issue is indeed troublesome, and can only be achieved by calling a very low-level API through windows-rs
