Use dosbox-staging splash screen

Browse source 
Users who test dosbox-staging via various GUI frontends might have a
problem distinguishing if the instance they have configured is really
dosbox-staging or some other version of DOSBox. Different splash screen
is a simple remedy for it.

Two graphical files are included: one in vector format to allow for
further refinements and one converted to necessary size in png format,
that is used as direct source of logo embedded in the source code. Use
GIMP to convert the png logo to a C file.

Notes about new design:

Orange background was replaced by black to make switch to black
background of empty terminal a little less jarring.

The box side is covered with the rainbow-like pattern to resemble logos
of various computer platforms popular in the 80s.  AFAIK IBM or
PC-clones never had such colourful logos, but the point is to resemble
a retro-computing platform while being aesthetically pleasing.

Some computing platforms, that used rainbow patterns are Sinclair,
Commodore, Amiga, Dragon 32, and Apple.  The pattern used for
dosbox-staging splash is deliberately different from all of these.

Word "staging" is rendered using excellent Raleway font:

This change is not supposed to be upstreamed.
