Added argument to raise warnings from factory errors on UnidentifiedImageError by radarhere · Pull Request #8033 · python-pillow/Pillow

Resolves #7993

If a user tries to open the image from that issue

from PIL import Image
Image.open("bug.png")

they will see

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "demo.py", line 2, in <module>
    Image.open("bug.png")
  File "PIL/Image.py", line 3380, in open
    raise UnidentifiedImageError(msg)
PIL.UnidentifiedImageError: cannot identify image file 'bug.png'

If the user would like to investigate further, this PR adds "warn_possible_formats". It will show any errors raised during the checking of the formats as warnings.

from PIL import Image
Image.open("bug.png", warn_possible_formats=True)

giving
