Screenshots of Ksnip and Spectacle as an image annotation tool

SUMMARY
***
>From version 22.04 Spectacle has finally come with a standalone Image
Annotation feature which allows users to annotate an existing image with the
command "spectacle --edit-existing". However, Spectacle still treats such an
existing image as a screenshot, saving a copy of it that folder, and then
resumes working on that newly created "screenshot image file" creating its
annotated copy also in that location, which contradicts with the intention to
use Spectacle also as a standalone Image Annotator.

All these features and more are actually provided in the cross-platform
screenshot and annotation tool called Ksnip (https://github.com/ksnip/ksnip)
already, and it seems only sensible to make use of this valuable development
work instead of duplicating it with flaws and bugs, and also lagging behind
considerably.
