Description

The image viewer that comes with material files can't decode .jxl files. It would be great if JPEG XL support was added to the image viewer. A jxl viewer for Android is already released.

Research direction

Start by locating the image viewer implementation in MaterialFiles and review the linked jxlviewer project for how JPEG XL decoding is handled on Android. Done means the image viewer can open and display .jxl files; add coverage if the existing viewer tests provide a suitable place.
