CydandClaude Fable 5 bec3bb1e4a Sparse package icons need resources.pri at the external location ...

The shell resolves Square44x44Logo through the package resource index;
this package never had a resources.pri, so every icon lookup failed and
Start/taskbar showed a generic icon regardless of the Assets PNGs.
Empirically (SHLoadIndirectString against the live package), with
AllowExternalContent MRT loads resources from the EXTERNAL location,
not the manifest's folder — so Register-vRIO.ps1 now copies Assets\ and
resources.pri next to the exe before registering. Make-Assets.ps1
regenerates the PNGs from vwe.ico and rebuilds the pri (needs makepri
from the Windows SDK / SDK.BuildTools NuGet). Package version bumped;
the MrtCache is keyed by package full name, so same-version
re-registration serves stale lookups.
