   * Sets the overlay icon and its corresponding alt text.
   *
   * @param statusIcon The handle to the overlay icon. The icon will be scaled
   *                   to the small icon size (16x16 at 96 dpi). Can be null, in
   *                   which case if the taskbar button represents a single window
   *                   the icon is removed.
   * @param statusDescription The alt text version of the information
   *                          conveyed by the overlay, for accessibility
   *                          purposes.
   * @param paintContext Optional context information used when passing an SVG
   *                     image. This allows the caller to set the context-fill
   *                     and context-stroke properties that would normally
   *                     be provided by CSS.
   *
   * @note The behavior for window groups is managed by Windows.
   * - If an overlay icon is set for any window in a window group and another
   *   overlay icon is already applied to the corresponding taskbar button, that
   *   existing overlay is replaced.
   * - If null is passed in to replace the overlay currently being displayed,
   *   and if a previous overlay set for a different window in the group is
   *   still available, then that previous overlay is displayed.
