Icon for odin.exe

[Hyrtwol]

Wanted to explore how Odin was handling windows resources and luckily it was very easy :) For testing I ended up adding 2 icons to Odin.exe (based on the emblem in artwork) and kinda liked it and thought it was worth sharing. This can maybe also serve as a "self test" of the resource feature. btw really nice we don't have to call the rc tool and it just build-in. Both icon files only contain a 16x16 and 32x32 to keep them small 3.5 KB as they are embedded in the exe. I used the 2nd icon for .odin files. It made the compiler stand out nicely :) But this is ofc only interesing on windows so I understand this might not be the time for things like this ;)

Here is what it looks like when you run odin_filereg.bat

>misc\odin_filereg.bat -add
Odin file registration
ODIN_ROOT=C:\dev\odin\Odin
Writeing C:\dev\odin\Odin\odin.bat

Added 3 command so far. Not sure if this is too clunky to be useful? :p

We may want to check that ODIN_ROOT is set to something before adding the registry entries, or people will have a broken context menu with no clue why it doesn't work.

I'll rethink this and get back with a better "solution" I think we have enough in sys/windos to code this in odin instead of using .reg files.
