This new function will allow selecting the bitmap of the most suitable size and automatically react to DPI scale changes (although this hasn't been implemented yet) in all controls using image lists. For now, only wxNotebook in wxMSW has been updated to work with it, the other classes and ports will be updated to override OnImagesChanged() instead of SetImageList() later. Also update the notebook sample to use SetImages() rather than SetImageList() -- which means that it doesn't show the icons any longer in non-MSW ports, which haven't been updated yet.
