The license for open-web-start is BSD 3-clause. The third clause essentially prohibits non-copyright-holders from using the project 'trademarks'. While it calls out only the name of the project/copyright holders, for good measure I don't want to use any of the assets if I package this in another binary. This change abstracts the GUI assets so the packager is responsible for provisioning them. This isn't the *best* interface, since the set of assets is not encoded in the interface, meaning a new version could break compatibility without the compiler catching it. But, it works well enough. We could always extend the interface to have explicit getters in the future if it proves problematic.

Note: I noticed that some of the assets in the generated file don't actually exist. I'm not sure if this is intentional or not. I also noticed that it was checked in despite being in .gitignore. Either way, I kept the generated file the same, excepting the package name. I didn't regenerate it.
