Narasimha-scandsh 1196d362ee desktop: animate GIFs and animated WebP (#7365)
* desktop: add bounded animated image decoder

Skia's Codec is already on the desktop classpath through skiko and decodes
both GIF and animated WebP. The frames come from a file somebody else
composed, so the decoder is bounded before it allocates: the raster is
measured in bytes with the sides multiplied as Long, each side is capped
separately so an extreme aspect ratio cannot slip under the byte budget, and
the encoded size is checked before the bytes are copied into native memory.
Anything outside the bounds, or any failure, keeps the still image the chat
already renders.

Nothing calls this yet.

* desktop: animate GIFs in chat items and full screen

Both views drew the first frame only. The full screen view also decoded its
still on every recomposition, which an animation recomposes once per frame,
so that decode is remembered against the data it comes from.

The chat list preview stays a still image: it is a 36dp box that the desktop
layout keeps on screen the whole time, so animating it would hold a raster and
spend a frame of work per listed chat, without pause.

Removes the two markers left for this work.

* desktop: don't decode animation frames that cannot be seen

With media blur on, a blurred image is only revealed while the mouse is over
it, so every frame was decoded, uploaded and then blurred away again for
nobody - and the blur is a render effect re-run per frame. Frames now decode
only while the image can be seen, which also stops motion showing through a
blur that is there to hide it.

Passing the blur state to the view is why the shared signature changes; coil
drives its own animation on Android, so there is nothing to pause there.
