Migrate from SMIL animations to WebGL or Canvas #25

SMIL animation was a nice idea to have not to care about the details of how to animate and has hardware support at least in Chrome, but it has its limits is not developed further and prevents from animating a really large number of tokens.

There are some alternatives with WebGL and/or Canvas. Should be explored how a library like PixieJS could be used.
