Change Default Variant Format from PNG to WEBP

Rodrigo Muino Tomonari requested to merge github/fork/6temes/default_variants_could_be_in_webp into main

Created by: 6temes

Use WEBP as the default format for representations

This pull request updates the default_variant_format method in the representable.rb file. Previously, the default image format was PNG. With this change, the default image format is now WEBP.

This change is made to improve the performance of our web pages, as all major browsers support WEBP images, which are generally smaller in size compared to PNG images, without any significant loss in image quality. This will help in faster loading of images and improve the overall user experience.
