Rendering very dark items in animation mode causes the output gif to break

As title - if you give the animation renderer a rather dark item to render, it fails to correctly output the gif.
What the thing looks like to try and render:

What the animation renderer outputs:
Scratch that, it seems to happen to other items, even when not dark...
Render from mod:
Worth noting, this occurs with auto loop turned on or off, but if it's on, I notice the auto loop takes a lot longer - sometimes going up to 60-80 instead of the normal values it gets to
This one seems to break it entirely
Render output here:
It's actually completely invisible, but this is what it looks like next to the other renders of the same block shape, for comparison:
Seems to be an issue with the underlying gif writer (Or the metadata I provide), writing out the source data seperate show that individual frames are being renderered correctly.
This will probably be fixed with the migration from AWT (See #14).
I've provided a temporary stopgap where you can render the animation to a zip containing each frame. There should be tools available to convert the collection of png's into a gif (ImageMagick, ffmpeg, etc). Sorry whilst it's not ideal its the quickest 'fix' I can provide at the moment.
