Remarks

This interface is the licence boundary, and it has already earned itself. Doc 01 specified ImageSharp; ImageSharp 4.0.0 turned out to fail the build without a purchased key, and swapping to StbImageSharp was one class rather than a change to the importer, the pipeline or anything downstream. A codec is one implementation of this, not a fact about the codebase.

Everything decodes to a TextureData because that is what the rest of the pipeline already speaks. A decoder returns one mip level of one face; chains, cube faces and compression are the importer's business.
