fix: detect and preserve image format instead of hardcoding RAW_UINT8

Previously, all images were sent with IMAGE_FORMAT_RAW_UINT8 regardless
of their actual format (JPEG, PNG, etc.), causing incorrect metadata to
be sent to the API when images weren't resized.

Changes:
- Add image format detection via magic number signatures for PNG, JPEG,
  GIF, BMP, WebP, and TIFF formats
- Update ImageData to automatically detect format during initialization
- Preserve detected format throughout transformation pipeline
- Convert UNSPECIFIED format to RAW_UINT8 before sending to ensure API
  never receives UNSPECIFIED
- Update resize transformer to set format to RAW_UINT8 when converting
  to raw pixel data

This ensures:
1. Native image formats (PNG, JPEG, etc.) are correctly identified and
   preserved when sent without resizing
2. Resized images are correctly marked as RAW_UINT8
3. IMAGE_FORMAT_UNSPECIFIED is never sent over the API (defaults to
   RAW_UINT8)

Tests: Added 46 new tests covering format detection, API validation,
and format preservation across both streaming and single classification
methods. All 166 tests passing.
