Add Fluid Taskbar Animation: High-performance macOS-style icons

[tky-kevin]

This mod is an evolved version of the taskbar dock animation concept, focusing on performance and visual seamlessness.

Key Enhancements:

• O(1) Dirty Checking: Uses a width/count-based detection system to avoid repetitive expensive UI tree scans.
• State Preservation: Unlike previous versions, icon animation states are preserved during layout refreshes (e.g., when opening/closing apps), eliminating visual stutters or "snapping."
• Refined Physics: Implements smooth Lerp and an optional subtle bounce for a more organic feel.
• Multilingual Support: Added Traditional Chinese metadata.

Testing has been done on Windows 11 with stable results across different taskbar alignment settings.

This looks like an improvement of the Taskbar Dock Animation mod. Why not work with @Ph0en1x-dev on improving the existing mod instead of creating a new mod with similar functionality?
