The parsing of entries like <Image Include="image.bmp" /> is more of
a UX thing as developers will expect image groups they have in their
original Visual Studio project to appear in whatever IDE they're
using with their converted-to-CMake-project. At least so I think.

The parsing of entries like <ResourceCompile Include="resource.rc" />
however makes resource file entries appear in the resulting
CMakeLists.txt which is a real functionality fix. Without the resource
files listed, converting projects using resource files would result in
broken converted projects.
