Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When browsing presets, it is hard to remember names and the only way to see waht they look like is to put them in the presets folder and then find them inside projectM. Some preset packs come with JPG previews, but those are in the minority.
Describe the solution you'd like
It would be great, if projectM could be used as a thumbnail generator for the different OS.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Perhaps its better to have a different program/repo for the thumbnail generator for each OS.
Additional context
Thank you for this awesome project!

Research direction
The issue does not identify any files, tests, or entry points. First determine how projectM presets are loaded and rendered, then define the supported operating systems and formats for a thumbnail generator. Done means an agreed implementation scope and a generator that produces usable previews for the selected preset formats.
