Image view bug on GOS

Start by reproducing the blank image viewer on Android 17/GrapheneOS using the steps in the issue, then inspect the image-viewing and Glide-loading entry points. The logs show Glide load failures but name no source files or tests, so trace how an image from a message thread is passed to the viewer. Done means tapping an image displays it instead of a blank grey screen.
