Revert "podcasts-gtk: Remove static resources"

Jordan Petridis requested to merge altiera/static-resources-again into master

This reverts commit f8426e36.

Installing it on the path and opening it is not great, given that the gresources are part of the app and can be linked against the binary. The only advantage is not having to relink the application if you only changed resource files, which isn't a usecase that needs to be optimized for.

Additionally this avoids opening and loading a couple megabytes of assets from the filesystem during startup, which is minor but does make startup a bit faster.

This also avoids weird issues like #301 (closed) and the tests are now working again even without installing the application first.

Close #301 (closed)
