David AlecrimandSmit Barmase 0ddc7d0666 Fix crash and enable GIF animation in markdown preview (#53459)
Closes #53426

Fixes a crash when previewing markdown with GIFs, and enables GIF
animation in the preview panel.

Two issues: a partially-decoded GIF could crash the preview, and GIFs in
markdown previews never animated.

The fix for GIFs with empty comment extensions (`21 fe 00`) was
implemented upstream in the `image-gif` crate (image-rs/image-gif#228)
and released as `gif 0.14.2`. This PR bumps the dependency so those GIFs
now render correctly in the markdown preview without any further changes
to Zed itself.

GIFs.
- Added GIF animation support for Markdown Preview.

Licensing

License information for third party dependencies must be correctly provided for CI to pass.

We use cargo-about to automatically comply with open source licenses. If CI is failing, check the following:

  • Is it showing a no license specified error for a crate you've created? If so, add publish = false under [package] in your crate's Cargo.toml.
  • Is the error failed to satisfy license requirements for a dependency? If so, first determine what license the project has and whether this system is sufficient to comply with this license's requirements. If you're unsure, ask a lawyer. Once you've verified that this system is acceptable add the license's SPDX identifier to the accepted array in script/licenses/zed-licenses.toml.
  • Is cargo-about unable to find the license for a dependency? If so, add a clarification field at the end of script/licenses/zed-licenses.toml, as specified in the cargo-about book.
