Research direction

The issue names no source file or test. First reproduce the HEIC upload and compare the GPS metadata from iPhone, standard Android, and Open Camera photos; then trace the upload and metadata-handling entry points. Done means valid HEIC photos no longer produce the reported “No GPS on this one” error, with coverage for the affected upload path.
