Notebook won't show animations

[gagern]

The following example, taken from the documentation of the animate module, produces no visible output in the notebook:

sage: sines = [plot(c*sin(x), (-2*pi,2*pi), color=Color(c,0,0), ymin=-1,ymax=1) for c in sxrange(0,1,.2)]
sage: a = animate(sines)
sage: a.show()

OK, I did a bit more than just enabling the embedding. I did restructure the show and save commands, and added support for APNG. I hope that I might be able to add other formats in the future, in the spirit of ticket:7298.

Originally I had intended to push a separate branch for the video tag aspect of this, but now I figure that reviewing a single branch should be easier than dealing with multiple interdependent branches. So this ticket here will take care of that aspect from ticket:7298 as well.
