[C/C++] RGBA数组生成Windows下的ico文件

Widows下只认.ico格式为程序图标，这是一种源自bmp的图片格式。ico中的颜色可以通过color table来表示也可以直接通过RGBA数组表示。

ico文件的格式见官方文档：

ico文件相关实现：

IconImagePlugin in Python PIL: http://code.google.com/p/casadebender/source/browse/python/PIL/Win32IconImagePlugin.py

construct ico from RGBA array - a python implementation：http://fayaa.com/code/view/6094/

下面是一个用从RGBA生成ico文件的C语言实现，生成一个红色的图标文件 - test.ico。
