add support for

* loading and decoding asciinema videos

challenges

video codec with variable framerate
gui: rendering a text terminal instead of video frames (ideally use something fast like alacritty)

-

existing editors for text-video

https://github.com/cirocosta/asciinema-edit (no sound editing)

-

existing recorders for text-video

https://github.com/asciinema/asciinema
https://github.com/dhobsd/castty (asciinema with sound)
https://github.com/nbedos/termtosvg (pure svg, no javascript, no play/pause control)
