Add Support for WebP file type

[MrDj200]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I wanna save disk space and have all my pictures in .WebP format, but the photo viewer is not showing .WebP files.

Describe the solution you'd like Show .WebP files in Photo viewer (file viewer already has this)

Describe alternatives you've considered Using .png files to use 90% more disk space

Additional context Maybe also consider adding support for WebM videos

Hello,

I also have the problem that .webp images are not displayed. (Nextcloud 24.1)

Does anyone know what the problem is?

This is where the allowed mime types are listed: https://github.com/nextcloud/photos/blob/master/lib/AppInfo/Application.php#L36

Thank you! Now they are displayed. But I can only see that there should be a picture, the real picture is not displayed. I generally have the problem that .webp images are not displayed in the Nextcloud web interface, but are always downloaded. Is there a setting that needs to be made in the viewer app?

Using NC 25, I can see webp files in the files app folder view with preview, but I cannot see them in the photo app folder view nor anywhere else in the photo app.

Sad that this isn't merged yet by a maintainer because i use webp and webm a lot to save disk space. As workaround i've uncommented the lines for webp and webm under /apps/photos/lib/AppInfo/Application.php.
