Description

I have a project (martin/test-cog-webp) with a remote COG raster that works in my desktop build, build does not work in Android build (as of v2025.2.4) - it says the layer could not be loaded.

The COG has webp encoding and it is very large (350K x 325K pixels), available through HTTPS, there's no authentication required.

No source file, test, or entry point is named in the issue. Reproduce the failure on Android with the HTTPS project martin/test-cog-webp and compare it with the working desktop build; done means the remote WebP-encoded COG layer loads successfully in the Android build.
