I've found that imghdr does not detect HEIF type yet.
I'd like to propose adding to detect HEIF type.

There's already real-life usage within HEIF
(https://help.dropbox.com/en-es/installs-integrations/mobile/ios-formats)

And also we can find a bunch of HEIF related programming issue such as Stack Overflow.
IMHO, supporting the detecting HEIF type is not a bad idea.

I want to hear core developers' opinion about this issue.
