 Follow up to #55443: While the multi MIME type architecture has been
 reverted, part of that code that came as an iteration to the original
 proposal was to allow fine tuned control over which image sizes should use
 WebP vs JPEG.

 For the vast majority of sizes, it will make sense to use WebP (e.g. any
 size that is used in the frontend). However, there are some special cases
 we need to consider, e.g. sizes that are registered only for a special
 circumstance, such as usage in an email newsletter or in Open Graph tags,
 or any other technology that may not support WebP.

 This ticket is to track this work, and it is a prerequisite to the already
 opened #56288, which will be used to control this aspect for custom image
 sizes in a declarative way.
