Once the svg file is converted to a png file, our PNG2cpp.cmake "script" 
convert the binary file to
a equivalent list of unsigned chars.

Currently inkscape is used to convert the svg file to a png file containing 
metadata.
This metadata is useless for us, and removed by pngcrush to reduce the size of 
the final .cpp file.
