Research direction

Start by locating the existing upgrade logic and how it reads IIIF Image API info.json metadata. Check how the sizes[] list could constrain upgrades when available, then verify that the implementation does not probe beyond the master or use cache-busting custom widths.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

enhancement

IIIF Image API 2.1 and 3.0 both encourage servers to advertise pre-rendered sizes via the sizes array in info.json. Picking from that list (when available) gives a hard ceiling so the upgrade logic never probes past the master, and avoids cache-busting custom widths. Out of scope for this PR — worth a separate issue.
