[x3d-public] HAnim Winter and Spring: some progress

[Andreas Plesch]

The alternative was to code a simple maximum search which only  uses
pairs, implemented in a functional style with reduce for brevity.
Probably quite a bit slower but only needed when first processing the
node.

The x3dom.org automatic, nightly dev builds from the github repo
currently do not seem to work. So I put the dev builds for the current
x3dom repo on the github cdn at

https://andreasplesch.github.io/x3dom/dist/x3dom-full.js
https://andreasplesch.github.io/x3dom/dist/x3dom.js
https://andreasplesch.github.io/x3dom/dist/x3dom.css
https://andreasplesch.github.io/x3dom/dist/doc

I can probably maintain these for now for updates to the x3dom github repo.

The x3dom editor at

https://andreasplesch.github.io/Library/Viewer/index.html now uses the
github.io cdn for the dev version.
See https://andreasplesch.github.io/Library/Viewer/index.html?url=https://www.web3d.org/x3d/content/examples/HumanoidAnimation/WinterAndSpring/Leif.x3d

The way jsdelivr works the files are also available as

https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/andreasplesch/x3dom@gh-pages/dist/x3dom.js
etc.
