Requirements

The libheif shared library must be named libheif in order for it to be found by P/Invoke.
On some platforms a DllImportResolver can be used to customize the loading of the libheif native library.
See LibHeifSharpDllImportResolver.cs in the libheif-sharp-samples repository for an example of this.

The minimum supported libheif version is 1.9.0.
