Image decoding lived in the GL texture file and had no limits: a file of
any size was read whole, stb and libwebp allocated whatever the header
claimed (a WebP alone up to 1 GB), and a GIF was decoded at full size,
every frame, before the 300-frame cap. A 720p 150-frame GIF avatar cost
0.2-1.5 s and 140-370 MB on the UI thread. stb's GIF loader also read
before the start of its buffer on disposal-3 frames, and when a long GIF
ran out of memory it freed the frame delays that the caller then freed
again (an abort).
Decoding, and the stb implementation, now live in the GL-free
util/image_decode_core, safe on any thread:
- the header is probed first; stills above 256 MP, any GIF or animated
WebP canvas above 32 Mi px, and files above 256 MiB are rejected
before anything is allocated (real photos, 200 MP phone shots and
wide panoramas still load);
- a GIF decodes one composited frame at a time, downscaled as it goes,
and stops at the frame cap: peak memory is stb's working buffers, two
canvases and the small frames; a truncated GIF keeps the frames
decoded so far;
- a header stb cannot read means "unsupported", never a blind decode;
- decodes above 16 MP run one at a time; a decode can be cancelled
between frames.
util::StartImageDecode runs one decode on a detached worker that owns its
job and its lane's in-flight counter, so nothing waits at exit; the next
commits move avatars and the image picker onto it. The limits apply now
to avatars and the picker's hover previews; thumbnails and avatar imports
get them when they move to workers.

Animated thumbnails now show a small play-arrow badge (bottom-right) so users can
spot which images move before hovering; it's hidden while the image plays on
hover.
Detection is cheap — a new util::IsAnimatedImageFile probes without a full
decode: animated WebP via WebPGetFeatures.has_animation, and a multi-frame GIF
via a lightweight image-descriptor block walk (stops at the 2nd frame). The
picker only probes .gif/.webp thumbnails and caches the result on the Thumb.
Verified: animated GIF + animated WebP report animated; still GIF/WebP/PNG do not.

Animate contact avatars end to end:
- texture_loader gains LoadAnimatedRGBA: decodes an image into a downscaled
RGBA frame sequence + per-frame durations — animated GIF via stb
(stbi_load_gif_from_memory) and animated WebP via libwebp's WebPAnimDecoder;
stills (and APNG, which stb reads as one image) return a single frame. Frames
are box-downscaled (smaller cap for animations) to bound VRAM, capped at 300.
- The contacts avatar cache now holds a frame sequence; currentAvatarFrame()
advances animated avatars by the ImGui clock and is used everywhere avatars
draw (list, cards, table, grid, preview). When a live animated frame is drawn
it flags the render loop (ConsumeContactsAvatarAnimation, clear-on-read) so
main.cpp keeps producing frames while animation plays and idles when it stops
or the contacts view is hidden.
- New animate_avatars setting (default on) + a Settings appearance toggle
("Animate avatars"); off shows the first frame only. currentAvatarFrame
honors it. +i18n (8 langs, CJK subset rebuilt for 帧/播/첫).
Verified: a 3-frame GIF and a 3-frame animated WebP both decode to 3 frames
with correct 120ms delays through the exact libwebp/stb calls used here.
