Document supported image types for device types & image attachments

NetBox version

3.3.4

Feature type

Change to existing functionality

Proposed functionality

Documentation would clearly state what image types are supported. or at least would point to upstream documentation which controls support. This issue to add HEIC support references Django's Image Field documentation. That seems to imply Pillow is most likely the primary source for signal.... but support could be augmented elsewhere. Regardless, having it documented what image types are the user can expect to use for devices would be helpful.

Use case

users wouldn't wonder if the image type they want to use is supported, and when exploring, would know whether behavior being experienced is a bug or not.

Database changes

No response

External dependencies

as stated above, it seems Django's image field and python-pillow are upstream influences to this. I'm not sure if there are others.
