<title>win32: add a config for 32-bit build with Unicode</title>

<id>urn:sha1:208649d7b5e27e5473f72381827364e4cfc0fc17</id>
<content type='text'>
Now that a binary with a UTF-8 manifest can run on Windows XP
it's possible to configure a build which supports Unicode on
Windows 10+ but which still runs on legacy systems.

- Add the config file mingw32w_defconfig.  This is a 32-bit build
  with the UTF-8 manifest which also runs on legacy systems.

- A new config option, FEATURE_FAIL_IF_UTF8_MANIFEST_UNSUPPORTED,
  allows the check for legacy systems to be skipped.

- An incompatibility with Windows XP in writeCon_utf8() has been
  fixed.

See this GitHub issue for details:

<title>win32: allow the use of PNG format icons</title>

<id>urn:sha1:3227f3bdeb7c33cfcb0d3d8ceed19a0ca9560e13</id>
<content type='text'>
Convert the icons to PNG format (by simply exporting them from
GIMP and selecting the 'Compressed (PNG)' chackbox).  Allow these
to be selected instead of ICO format at build time.

Use the PNG icons by default in the Unicode and aarch64 builds.
Saves 26KB in those cases.

Use the (somewhat ancient) Microsoft RtlGenRandom() function to
provide random data for /dev/urandom.

Saves 176-240 bytes.
