2006?: Andrew Clover made the 16-, 32-, and 48-bit icons for win23.
IDLE-PYTHON LOGOS

These are sent to tk on Windows, *NIX, and non-Aqua macOS
in pyshell following "# set application icon".


2006?: Andrew Clover made variously sized python icons for win23.

(TJR: Not sure if this originally included 256-bit image.)

2006: They were copied to CPython as Python application icons.
2006: 16, 32, and 48 bit .png versions were copied to CPython
as Python application icons, maybe in PC/icons/py.ico.

(TJR: I do not remember where put in CPython source tree.)

2014: They were copied (perhaps a bit revised) to idlelib/Icons.
https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/64605
.gif versions were also added.

2020: Add Clover's 256-bit image.

The idlexx.gif files are only needed for *nix running tcl/tk 8.5.
As of 2022, this was known true for 1 'major' Linux distribution.
(Same would be true for any non-Aqua macOS with 8.5, but must be none.)

Can be deleted when we require 8.6 or it is known always used.
