Request: add support for animated files : GIF, WEBP, HEIF, AVIF

[AndroidDeveloperLB]

Also, please allow to go over each of the frames, and know how long to wait between them.
This is in case we would like to do play the animation manually.

Either:
https://github.com/soywiz/ktcc
https://github.com/soywiz/wasm2kt
should help here.
Though my objective is to mature ktcc enough to convert comments and actual structures to kotlin so the code is nicer and could be ported to plain kotlin later easily.

I don't understand how those links are related to decoding of animated image files....

[soywiz]

The libraries for decoding/encoding those imaging formats are written in C.

With Kotlin/Native we are served. But KorIM is written in Kotlin Common and provides support for JVM and JS and ideally I want to support other things lije TeaVM or JTransc. So I need to convert them into Kotlin without JNI or emscripten and only provide native libraries as an optimization.

[AndroidDeveloperLB]

I see.
But I think that on Android it doesn't matter so much now, as code is converted to machine like language, making your Java/Kotlin code very near C in terms of performance.
No?

Animated GIF implemented

Nice!
