\class BIconUtils

\brief The BIconUtils class provide utility methods for managing and
drawing vector icons.
Haiku icons are stored in the HVIF (Haiku Vector Icon Format). This format
was designed specifically for this purpose, and allows the icon data to be
small enough to fit in file's inodes. This way, the icon can be displayed
like any other file attribute, without extra disk access.
This class provide only static methods to allow access to the icon data and
rendering to BBitmaps for later use in an application. It also supports
older icons in bitmap format. These may still be useful at very small
sizes. Note you can't create an instance of BIconUtils, just call the
static methods.

\brief Utility function to import an icon from a node.
Utility function to import an icon from the node that
has either of the provided attribute names. Which icon type
is preferred (vector, small or large B_CMAP8 icon) depends
on the colorspace of the provided bitmap.
\note If the colorspace is B_CMAP8, B_CMAP8 icons are preferred. In that
case, the bitmap size must also match the provided icon_size "size"!

\brief Utility function to import a vector icon in "flat icon" format.
Utility function to import a vector icon in "flat icon"
format from a BNode attribute into the preallocated BBitmap \a result.
The colorspace of result needs to be B_RGBA32 or at
least B_RGB32 (though that makes less sense). The icon
will be scaled from it's "native" size of 64x64 to the
size of the bitmap.
\note The scale is derived from the bitmap width, the bitmap should have
square dimension, or the icon will be cut off at the bottom (or have
room left).
