Easy Screen Recorder for MP4, WebM oder GIF output #989

Summary of the new feature/enhancement

Windows still doesn't have a good way to record the screen as a video or gif file. That is why I always rely on third party tools like ShareX.

For MacOS there is a tool called Kap which allows you to record a fullscreen video, a window or a specific region in forehand and afterwards allows you to change the video output resolution, fps and format (MP4, WebM or GIF).

I think implementing this in some way would be awesome for people doing a lot of quick videos. (I for example do code handovers with video examples so it's easier to see my feature or change in action).

I could even see this tool in some form in combination with the new Snipping Tool.
