Adding `webp, tiff, bmp` to allowed_extensions list in imageai/Detection/__init__.py

[santokalayil]

Allowed extensions in opencv read list were ["jpg", "jpeg", "png"]. .webp extension also also can be read by opencv. Therefore adding webp to the allowed_extension list.

Is it possible to add BMP and TIFF too? OpenCV appears to support them as well.

@santokalayil can you add test cases for this change by
