Pure virtual base class for animators.

Each data type supported by the animation framework is represented by an

animator, which handles the data interpretation, timing and control.  Each

animator is provided in the form of an ECOM plugin.

You do not need to instatiate animators in a client application.  This is

handled by the animation classes.
