f0967fa5e4 gtk4-update-icon-cache: Avoid UAC on 32-bit Windows
As the program executable name has 'update' in its filename,
gtk4-update-icon-cache.exe is considered to be an installer program on 32-bit
Windows [1], which will cause the program to fail to run unless it is running
with elevated privileges (i.e. UAC).

Avoid this situation by embedding a manifest file into the final executable
that tells Windows that this is not a program that requires elevation.

Fixes issue #3632.

ac0f524722 build: Redo the tools build
Move the tools directory to be toplevel, and instead of
recompiling sources twice, link them with the our new
static libgtk.a.
