Animated GIFs throughout documentation #350

Please stop using animated GIFs that automatically play in documentation. These are insanely distracting and make reading the nearby text virtually impossible for many of us. Post multiple screenshots if you can't capture everything you need to in a single picture. If you must post a short video, give the reader a way to pause playback (or just provide a link to a video instead). A 1-second delay between images is extremely difficult to absorb for screens with any significant complexity.

For example, from the Fabric workshop at https://github.com/microsoft/Dynamics-365-FastTrack-Implementation-Assets/tree/master/Analytics/DataverseLink/FabricWorkshop , these are the types of GIFs I'm referring to:
