This backports avif support from upstream libgd into bundled libgd
and exposes the functionality through new imagecreatefromavif()
and imageavif() functions.
Closes GH-7026.

The function accepts a bool since PHP 8.0, so it should also return
a bool to keep things consistent.
Furthermore a null return from this functions is not possible.
It is explicitly documented to be nullable, and this matches other
functions like imagepng. It is also documented to accept a stream,
which it currently does not...
While `imagesetinterpolation()` is available as of PHP 5.5.0,
there is no according getter function, so users would have to track the
current interpolation method manually.
To remedy this, we introduce `imagegetinterpolation()` as thin wrapper
for `gdImageGetInterpolationMethod()` (which has been introduced with
libgd 2.1.1), and use `im->interpolation_id` as fallback for older
libgd. Since our bundled libgd does not yet have this function, we add
it.
We also simplify the recently introduced bug79068.phpt, where it is
sufficient to check that the interpolation method has not been changed.
That parameter is mostly useless in practise, and likely has been
directly ported from the underlying `gdImagePolygon()` and friends,
which require that parameter since the number of elements of the point
array would otherwise be unknown. Typical usages of `imagepolygon()`,
`imageopenpolygon()` and `imagefilledpolygon()` pass `count($points)/2`
or hard-code this value as literal. Since explicitly specifying this
parameter is annoying and error-prone, we offer the possibility to omit
it, in which case the `$points` array must have an even number of
elements, and the number of points is calculated as `count($points)/2`.
