Draft: spinner: add style class when animations are disabled

gwillems requested to merge g.willems/gtk:spinner_no_animation into main

CSS animations are stopped when the gtk-enable-animations setting is disabled, which makes the spinners look stuck, as if the whole app UI was frozen and unresponsive...

This MR automatically adds a .frozen style class to spinners when animations are disabled. This allows themes to use a fallback static icon, in place of the typical animated one.

For reference, Firefox replaces the loading-tab bouncing indicator by a static hourglass icon when animations are disabled.

Remaining points:

  • add a proper fallback icon (hourglass?) instead of document-open-recent-symbolic
