DDS reading issues

The OP reported that opening any of the sky DDS images in the test data caused a runtime exception. The current SDK (v3.2.1-stable-sdk3) recognizes DDS images as binary files but offers to open them in a text editor. If the user consents to open them, there is no crash.

While it would be nice to be able to view DDS images in the SDK, this doesn't seem to me like a serious defect. I'll downgrade this to an enhancement.

This should/could be moved to the SDK repository, but the fix would probably be to remove DDS as known extension / disable the text editor as the SDK isn't an image editor anyway and has only limited abilities to use images. A preview would be nice, but I am not sure how complicated that would be, especially given that DDS might be a proprietary file format (iirc)
