The Media formats section still says KMServer has no HEIF, HEIC or AVIF decoding. kmworks/kmrs#319 moves all three to libheif, so this replaces that line with what remains unreadable, removes Intel Macs from the release platforms, and notes that the first build downloads prebuilt libraries.

Merge this after kmworks/kmrs#319: pushes to main deploy straight to production, and until then these pages describe behavior that has not landed. The Intel Mac line should go live with the next kmrs release, since current releases still ship that archive.

pnpm build, pnpm exec nimbus-docs check and pnpm lint:docs pass.

KMServer now reads HEIF, HEIC and AVIF pages, so the page no longer says
they are undecoded. It lists what is still missing instead: image
sequences, grid-based and animated AVIF, and container rotation for AVIF.

Lead with everyday files working normally and keep the rare variants to a
single sentence.

HEIF, HEIC and AVIF now go through libheif, so only unusual payloads remain
unreadable. Building needs libheif, and macOS releases are Apple silicon only.
