Pillow-heif

Changed

- EXIF raw data in info["exif"] is now skipping first 6 bytes(`Exif\x00\x00`). Like in Pillow for WEBP.

Fixed

- EXIF parsing(Xiaomi images and possible others). Thanks to mxsleo 92
- (Pillow) `deepcopy` support for HeifImageFile and AvifImageFile
- (macOS, arm64) `libde265`(HEIF decoder) now has the same version as in other builds(`1.0.8`->`1.0.11`)
- (macOS, arm64) `libaom`(AVIF) now has the same version as in other builds(`3.4.0`->`3.6.0`)

Added

- Windows PyPy wheels.
- Faster image loading implementation with Pillow `9.5.0`
- `options.ALLOW_INCORRECT_HEADERS` option to allow loading files with invalid `ispe` header. Thanks to Soooda 86

Two bugs in XMP metadata handling that were causing exceptions. All versions were affected.
