Refactor icons script #1621

Description

@blitzmann

So, v2.1.0 is missing a few icons, most notably the charges for the new Trglavian weapons. The main reason why the icons are missing is because they don't conform to the normal naming convention that our script expects. They also rely on the SDE (well the image export anyway). Any deviation from this naming convention and it forces us to add the icons manually.

Instead of relying on the image export, we can tap directly into the icon files used by the client. We could also potentially get rid of the icon mapping table within eve.db. I expect we can just used the iconID provided, read the res files of the client and pull the icons that we need. This way, we avoid any funky naming issues and assumptions from within our script.

I want to at least look into this and develop out a prototype, and then evaluate how well it might work in practice.
