Description
The application was failing when processing HEIC images with a ffi.error: struct heif_decoding_options: wrong total size error due to compatibility issues between pyheif and the underlying C library. This PR replaces pyheif with pillow-heif, a more modern and actively maintained library that integrates directly with PIL/Pillow. The changes include updating the dependency in pyproject.toml, simplifying the HEIC conversion logic from complex manual data handling to a simple Image.open() call, and cleaning up imports and code formatting. This eliminates the C library compatibility issues while making the code more maintainable and reliable for HEIC image processing.
