Comment:

 In [changeset:"61334" 61334]:

 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="61334"
 Media: Adjustments for official HEIF/HEIC support in added in PHP 8.5.

 Now that a version of `imagick` with support for PHP 8.5 has been released
 and the containers maintained by the project for the local development
 environemnt have been updated to include it, there are some new PHP 8.5
 compatibility issues that have surfaced related to HEIF/HEIC image format.

 PHP 8.5 added support for the HEIF/HEIC image format in `getimagesize()`.
 To properly support this in a cross-version way, a few changes are
 necessary.

 Since [58849], WordPress has supported this format and the
 `IMAGETYPE_HEIC` constant was introduced as a placeholder until proper
 support was added in PHP. Since that has now happened, this constant needs
 to be changed to contain a value of `20` instead of `99`, and the name
 upstream was added as `IMAGETYPE_HEIF`. The constant in Core is being
 changed to match those included in PHP.

 The implementation for this image format in `getimagesize()` also follows
 a similar pattern to that of AVIF where additional information such as the
 image `bits` and `channels` are also returned. This additional information
 is causing unit tests to fail. The tests have been updated to account for
 different versions of PHP returning a different level of detail.

 Follow-up to [58849].

 Reviewed by desrosj, SergeyBiryukov.
 Merges [61328] to the 6.9 branch.
