Image Backends

Neofetch 3.0 included a rewrite of how we handle different modes (image, ascii and etc) which allowed us to add additional image backends to Neofetch. Neofetch now supports displaying images using catimg, libcaca, chafa, iterm2, jp2a, kitty, pixterm, pot, libsixel, termpix, tycat, and w3m.
Image Backends
Note: The screenshot for iterm2, tycat, sixel and w3m is the same since the output in these backends is identical. I also can't get a screenshot of iterm2 since I don't have a macOS machine.
