  //
  // transparency=[yes|no|none]  --  default: "yes"
  //     Overrides default from input format. "no" and "none" are equivalent.
  // skipfirstframe=[yes|no]  --  default: "no"
  //     Controls display of the first frame in animations. PNG-only clients always
  //     display the first frame (and only that frame).
  // frames=#  --  default: "1"
  //     Total number of frames in the image. The first frame, even if skipped, is
  //     always included in the count.
  // plays=#  --  default: "0"
  //     Number of times to play the animation sequence. "0" will repeat forever.
  //
  //
  // The following options can be used for each frame, with addImageFrame():
  //
  // transparency=[yes|no|none]  --  default: "yes"
  //     Overrides default from input format. "no" and "none" are equivalent.
  // delay=#  --  default: "500"
  //     Number of milliseconds to display the frame, before moving to the next frame.
  // dispose=[none|background|previous]  --  default: "none"
  //     What to do with the image's canvas before rendering the next frame. See APNG spec.
  // blend=[source|over]  --  default: "source"
  //     How to render the new frame on the canvas. See APNG spec.
  // xoffset=#  --  default: "0"
  // yoffset=#  --  default: "0"
  //     Where to draw the frame, relative to the canvas.
  //
  //
  // JPEG:
  // -----
  //
  // quality=#  --  default: "92"
  //    Quality of compression, 0-100 (worst-best). 
  //    Quality >= 90 prevents down-sampling of the color channels.
