docs: scope the zero-dependency claim to the default build (formats policy)#35
Merged

… build) The default build is genuinely dependency-free today, but the roadmap adds opt-in formats (WebP/AVIF/HEIC) that require external libs. Document the contract unambiguously so the claim never becomes false advertising: - README: new "Dependencies & formats" section — default build = zero deps (libc only); built-in formats need nothing; WebP/AVIF/HEIC are opt-in build flags that link external libs and are NEVER in the default binary. - SECURITY.md: same clause in the dependency-policy section (opt-in libs add to the trust/attack surface; default guarantees unchanged). No code change — current default binary still links only libSystem/libc. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Makes the "zero dependencies" claim airtight ahead of the opt-in format work. Default build stays dependency-free (libc only); WebP/AVIF/HEIC, if added, are opt-in build flags that link external libs and are never in the default binary. README gets a
Dependencies & formatssection; SECURITY.md gets the matching clause. No code change.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
