Happy New Year everyone !

I just released a new version of my android app jxlviewer !

This update bump libjxl version to v0.9.0.

I also hacked a version of Simple Gallery that support jxl files. Try it out !.

My goal is to improve the android library, so that other app can use it safely, and then maybe add official support in Simple Gallery.

@jpegxl Will #jpegXL need additional metadata when used with HTML's srcset? While the format's progressive rendering can do away with the need to have different files per resolution, browsers will instead need to know how much of the image they'll fetch. How would we pass that information to the browser? Extra syntax in srcset, eg p.jxl, p.jxl \<2040 100w, p.jxl \<6974 200w to tell that for a 100px wide view the browser needs to load the first 2040 bytes? Fragment identifier tricks?

Finally, the missing puzzle piece before world takeover.
