Comment (by adamsilverstein):

 >I'm not completely aware of how the conversion is being done behind the
 scene. Judging from the conversation, it seems that there is a double
 conversion in a chain: First from HEIC to JPG (default) and then from JPG
 to AVIF (thanks to the filter hook upgrade).
 > Still, I'm not sure if it's possible to do a straight conversion from
 HEIC to AVIF. The suggestion is that this type of conversion should be
 left to plugins, not native to WP.
 > I'm assuming that @adamsilverstein suggests leaving open this ticket
 just in case someone takes the time to upgrade the conversion system to
 avoid a chained conversion?

 The conversion is from HEIC to AVIF directly, but may have failed for a
 variety of reasons. A smaller upload will likely succeed.

 I left this ticket open as a reminder to update the docs for this feature
 (https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/62365#comment:10). I'll work on
 that now.
