Update wxImageList documentation to mention high DPI concerns

First of all, document that this class is (informally) deprecated.

Also document that the various sizes are expressed in logical pixels.

wxImageList is used principally in conjunction with wxTreeCtrl and
wxListCtrl classes.
Use of this class is not recommended in the new code as it doesn't support
showing DPI-dependent bitmaps. Please use wxWithImages::SetImages() instead
of wxWithImages::SetImageList().
