I haven't looked closely into the HEIF format, but would presume that
it's not trivial to get the required information for getimagesize() and
friends. As such, bundling a small library like libavifinfo is probably
the best we can do, but we should not forget to keep that up to date.
However, I wouldn't know if there is such a library. Bundling the full
libheif is certainly not an option.
