[Bug 1173622] Re: Boinc Manager icon in Unity is small

[MestreLion]

@Saikrishna and @LocutusOfBorg: I've just found larger *and* transparent
icons in the upstream source tree! :)

http://boinc.berkeley.edu/trac/export/HEAD/boinc-v2/clientgui/res/BOINCGUIApp.ico

It contains icons size 16, 32, 48 and 256 (no 128 tho), and are easily
extractable using 'icotool' from 'icotools' package.

I've also updated my script to use that icon set instead of the BMP ones:
https://github.com/MestreLion/scripts/blob/master/runonce/setup/boinc_icons

@LocutusOfBorg: I'll also create a patch for such changes in the Debian
git repo. Current xpm files can be removed from /debian, but a build
dependency on 'icontools' will need to be added, is that fine? Or should
I add the binary, already extracted PNG icons?
