## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

Remove the `SHGFI_ICON` flag from the call to
`NativeMethods.SHGetFileInfo`.

This flag opens a handle to the icon (`hIcon`) as well as filling the
index (`iIcon`)
([docs](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/shellapi/nf-shellapi-shgetfileinfow#shgfi_icon-0x000000100)).
This handle stored in `shinfo.hIcon` is never used by following code,
and is not freed as suggested by the documentation
([docs](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/shellapi/nf-shellapi-shgetfileinfow#remarks)).

The `SHGFI_ICON` flag also fills `shinfo.iIcon`, which is used later.
However, this is also filled when passing the flag `SHGFI_SYSICONINDEX`,
which we already pass.

Therefore, the `SHGFI_ICON` flag is redundant here, and has been
removed.

Thanks to @Androvald for finding  and suggesting the fix.
