2.6.0

In addition to new CMake support by @madebr and many bug fixes, here are the highlights since the last release:

• API documentation is now available on the wiki: https://wiki.libsdl.org/SDL_image
• Added stb_image as the default backend for JPG and PNG images loading.
  To use libpng and libjpg instead, configure using --disable-stb-image
• Added IMG_LoadSizedSVG_RW()
• Added support for AVIF images (https://github.com/AOMediaCodec/libavif)
• Added IMG_ReadXPMFromArrayToRGB888()
• Added support for JXL images (https://jpegxl.info/)
• Added support for QOI images (https://qoiformat.org/)
• Fixed XCF regression introduced in 2.0.5
• Added support for loading animated GIFs
• LoadBMP() now loads files using SDL2
• Allow using libwebpdecoder instead libwebp
