Description

Probably more a question than an actual "issue" but is HEIC support planned to be merged on this repo? Google Photos already supports HEIC so one does wonder.

Thanks for all your work into this lib.

Research direction
Investigate the issue comments and any linked discussions to determine if maintainers have provided guidance on HEIC support. Review the Glide codebase for existing image format handling, specifically in the decoder package (e.g., ByteBufferGifDecoder, ResourceDecoder). Check if there are any branches or PRs related to HEIC. Consider reaching out to maintainers for clarification on desired implementation approach and scope.
