I am working on adding our plugins (AVIF, HEIF, JXL) into Windows build of the https://github.com/telegramdesktop/tdesktop

tdesktop for Windows is one monolith build with static linkage everywhere (and using Visual Studio 2022).

I discovered that think that are easy on Linux may be very complicated on Windows with MS tools.

Those experiences helped in decisions to use lower level libheif functions.

It is not only about allowing static linkage but I wanted to use some features not available in libheif's C++ API anyway.
