Convert WebP to AVIF on upload

[phanduynam]

Modern Image Formats 2.2.0 does not support converting uploaded WebP files to AVIF

Thanks, @phanduynam, for raising this issue.

Currently the plugin didn't added support for WebP to AVIF image but in future if possible we can add it.

@mukeshpanchal27 Thanks, I'm looking forward to this.

This should be a relatively small change. No new UI is needed, if the selected output format is AVIF and users upload a WebP we can convert them.

@mukeshpanchal27 Thanks, I'm looking forward to this.

@phanduynam I'm curious about your use case / why you have WebP's you are trying to upload in the first place. It makes sense to "upgrade" to AVIF, but I thought most users would be coming from JPEGs.

I'm doing a website crawl, there will be webp images, but I want them all converted to avif. Simple as that

@adamsilverstein I would like to know if this add-on applies to the 18/11 update?

This change fix the WebP to AVIF transforms.

That change makes sense @mukeshpanchal27, since the user has explicitly selected AVIF output. Can you open a PR with that change?
