Comment (by dovydas):

 To add support for webp I had to add 'webp' to wp-includes/functions.php
 in 3 places. It was as simple as that. Now I can upload and display webp
 images without using any plugin.

 The only thing that's missing - image editor.

 I believe that uploading, editing and displaying webp images should be in
 the core. More advanced features, e.g. checking browser supported formats
 and choosing what format to display - this should be provided by plugin.
