Add libavif support #88

Due to x265 dependency in libheif, some distros can't ship this wallpaper plugin, which is a bummer. On the other hand, there's the AVIF file format, which is equivalent to the HEIF file format but without all the pesky patents.

Draft not tested if it actually works. Also, the wallpaper plugin will need to handle color space information in wallpapers.

@karmanyaahm for the record, in version 4, it won't be possible to load dynamic wallpapers created for version 3. One would need to run kdynamicwallpaperbuilder again to get avif wallpapers. kdynamicwallpaperbuilder's metadata format has not been changed.
