Allowed to upload images in WebP format

[empiricompany]

Description (*)

Since the webp format is now supported by all modern browsers *, I have added the ability to upload images in webp format.

• https://caniuse.com/webp

This PR allow to upload an image in webp format and add support to resize and cache it correctly in frontend.

PS: I know that there are extensions/techniques to dynamically generate the WebP version on the frontend, but based on the target audience, with this PR, we can decide to upload them directly in the correct format.

Manual testing scenarios (*)

Test all scenarios with an image in webp format

Tested scenarios:

• Product images
• Product Custom Options Input Type: File
  
• Category Image and Thumbnail Image
• CMS WYSIWYG Media Storage

Untested scenarios:

• Import/export
• API

I create this pull request as a draft since there are areas that I have not yet tested.
Tested on PHP 7.4.29 with GD 2.1.0 (support to webp should be enabled by default)

@fballiano can you rebase this PR since this commit?
first draft webp support catalog media product and cms

Sorry if I always make a huge mess 😅 but what matters is the substance

[fballiano]

the PR looks ok, I don't think there's anything to rebase :-)

[fballiano]

IMHO it would be great to have a single

    /**
     * @var string[]
     */
    public const ALLOWED_IMAGES_EXTENSIONS = ['webp', 'jpg', 'jpeg', 'png', 'gif', 'bmp'];

instead of many arrays throughout the code, all of the code should be referencing to that constant :-)

yes but it was keep untouched for backward compatibility reasons
maybe we can create new constant and return it keeping in the deprecated methods?

[fballiano]

the one that I posted is a new one ;-)

Personally, I would not put webp as the first image format in the list that is seen in the Backend. I would list it at the end, because it is a format after all the ones that have been so far.

done

[empiricompany]

please test importexport and api scenarios

[fballiano]

I've unified all into a single constant, see if you like it :-)

perfect

[fballiano]

seems to work fine to me!

[addison74]

So far so good.

I would like to test "Image type product options" mentioned in the description, but I don't know anything about this feature. Any help?

[fballiano]

not sure but probably you have to create a new product attribute of type image:

[addison74]

That type of attribute adds a new column in the Images section. I asked because he made me curious about what it could be and I don't already know.

[fballiano]

ahhhh ok then I don't know 😅

@addison74 you have to create a product custom options of type image that allow customers to upload an image in the frontend

[addison74]

Now I understand what it is about. It should have been mentioned as "File type in custom options" . A word led to misunderstanding.

[addison74]

I tested this PR and encountered no issues. It is a new feature in OpenMage much discussed in the forums of the time.

yes sorry i've updated PR description

[fballiano]

great, let's merge it, it's a nice little new addition for the upcoming release :-)

[addison74]

[Only if it is confirmed]
I would add a warning in the README file that issues may arise with Magmi. Here is a report dweeves/magmi-git#596.

[Photoshop Users]
WebP has support for Photoshop native (since version 23.2) and based on a module https://github.com/webmproject/WebPShop. I used both without any issues.

Maybe now it works, we need to try

[addison74]

First we have to do a test for the Import feature we already have in OpenMage and confirm that it works (CSV file, a few images uploaded, ...). I will check these days.
