Switched menu resource loading to use bundled PNG assets (instead of SVG paths) for zc-menu-* icons, so menu icon resolution is consistent and no longer depends on SVG/icon-theme availability on different platforms (including Win32 builds).

Updated the GResource manifest so all menu icons now come from data/icons/menu/{light,dark} PNG files and are embedded with to-pixdata preprocessing, ensuring the app uses one unified internal icon set across platforms.

    Generated and added PNG assets for both light and dark menu icon variants under data/icons/menu/ to back the new resource paths used by the GTK menu code.

    Fixed menu icon resource detection to fall back from PNG to SVG when probing zc-menu-* entries, so menu item icon lookup no longer fails just because one format is unavailable at runtime.

    Updated GTK menu icon loading to use gdk_pixbuf_new_from_resource (instead of ..._at_scale) and added explicit fallback order across variant/light and PNG/SVG resources, which addresses the “red no-entry square” missing-icon behavior you reported.

    Kept compatibility with your previous menu resource setup while making loading more resilient on Win32 and other environments where resource/pixbuf behavior differs.
