Undocumented binaries in Go modules #15

Description

@GG3Hahn

gameutil/ and multichoice/ both contain a binary file rsrc.syso that gets linked into the executable upon building. There is no documentation on what these files are or how to reproduce them in this repository.
As far as I can tell from a hexdump these just contain Windows manifests, so they are probably harmless. They look sketchy (to me) however, and there's no way to know whether or not they contain malicious code from the GitHub website.
It would be nice if these files were generated at build time from a proper source, or at least explained within the repo somehow.

The files in question:
