[PATCH] Add Synfig Studio.

Hi Guix, the attached patch set adds a new “animation.scm” module containing Synfig Studio, a really nice 2D animation suite. A couple of patches and substitutions were needed to make Synfig build with our version of libsigc++ and the latest version of libxml++ (added with the first patch). I ad
