So, this is an attempt to add support for Invidious-specific image endpoints.
I marked PR as a draft because I have some questions about expected behavior.

Should Invidious endpoints be backwards compatible with Piped? For example, both Invidious and Piped can download video previews via /vi/, but Piped requests them with query (/vi/MYSQe4uuSOA/hq720.jpg?host=i.ytimg.com&qhash=...&rs=...&sqp=...) while Invidious requests them without query (/vi/MYSQe4uuSOA/mqdefault.jpg).

With the current approach they are not backwards compatible, so if a Piped client sends a request to a proxy with invidious feature enabled, qhash and other parameters will not be used and validated. This allows avoiding unnecessary checks for instances running only Piped or only Invidious, but will cause problems for instances running both.

If they need to be backwards compatible, a check that the query is empty could be added here, for example.

Isn't this check supposed to be like that?

Suggested change
if content_type == "image/webp" || content_type == "image/jpeg" && avif {
if (content_type == "image/webp" || content_type == "image/jpeg") && avif {

Now image/webp is always transcoded regardless of the presence of avif in the query, because this check is computed as

if content_type == "image/webp" || (content_type == "image/jpeg" && avif) {

image_response: Response,
http_response: &mut HttpResponseBuilder,
#[cfg(feature = "avif")] avif: bool,
) -> Result<Either<HttpResponse, Response>, Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {

What behavior is expected in case of transcoding errors? Should the server return 500 Internal Server Error (as it is now) or the original image?
