Added a new video wallpaper plugin that uses QtMultimedia instead of mpvpaper. This might be a better approach since we wouldn't be dependent on mpvpaper. I'll try to maintain both mpvpaper and this one for now, but in the case that I see that this plugin is more useful than the mpvpaper we can deprecate the mpvpaper plugin.

A lot of this code is taken from the mpvpaper plugin, but still do check the code thorough in case I've missed anything.

@ItsLemmy, would it be possible to deprecate a plugin in the future?

If you want to deprectate the previous mpvpaper plugin, you could just remove most of the code in a new PR, and have a the bar button open a panel with a message to invite people to migrate to the new one.

Or just let it live its life :P

We dont have a system to deprecate plugins.
