bug#54848: 29.0.50; Emacs doesn't understand certain animated GIFs

Googling a bit, it seems like there's GIFs out there now (produced by
some popular tool) that adds some extra blocks and are therefore
"invalid".  But all other parsers than the giflib one just ignores those
bits, apparently.

I wonder -- are there other C libraries for GIF that we could switch to?
Not just because of this, but because the libgif one is pretty slow,
especially with animated images.
