Generate binary resource without use of external compiler

[delphidabbler]

It is inconvenient to have to use an external resource compiler to compile .res files from intermediate .rc files. Add facility to VIEd to generate binary files directly.

B/f from issue 16 of the old verinfo-tools tracker on GoogleCode.

May implement this as part of command line compiler that VIEd can use instead of rolling functionality into VIEd.

This is going to be hard unless we make use of VIBinData.dll, or convert the DLLs source code into some suitable format for linking into the VIEd executable.

Current work on the VIBinData.dll source code makes it likely that the core code may be available as a library (see delphidabbler/vilib#8).

Use of that library, along with ddablib/resfile would greatly simplify writing binary resource files.

For various options for embedding resources in an existing resource file see htmlres/UMain.pas.

This library has now been released, so the implementation of this issue is now easier.

❗ If this issue is implemented and the feature to use an external resource compiler is removed then this will probably imply a major version bump.

Could leave access to external resource compiler in place to avoid version bump.
