Platform with the issue

Reproduction steps
- Set Previews format to WebP on https://my.immich.app/admin/system-settings?isOpen=image+preview-settings
- Use the Widget
- Widget will make proper requests to the server but won't display anything
Additional information
After some analysis on Discord, it appears that this is caused by UIImage not supporting WebP images.
Mentioned options are to enforce on-the-fly encoding with a parameter and add a check in the Widget to display an error instead of just crashing if an unsupported format is provided.

This will be fixed via a future on-the-fly thumbnail generation feature.
Current solution is to set your preview format to JPEG in thumbnail settings: https://my.immich.app/admin/system-settings?isOpen=image
