jpeg,bmp,tiff, andtifare not represented). Prefer deriving the hint from a single shared mapping or from registered writers so messaging stays accurate asinit()evolves.As per coding guidelines, "Suggest any enhancements for code improving efficiency, maintainability, comprehensibility, and correctness."

- Around line 119-124: The supported-format message currently includes the
wildcard key EXT_WILDCARD ("*") from SUPPORTED_WRITERS, which confuses users;
before building _supported, filter SUPPORTED_WRITERS.keys() to exclude
EXT_WILDCARD (or any literal "*") and then join/sort the remaining keys so the
OptionalImportError message lists only real formats—update the code around the
OptionalImportError raise (where _supported is computed) to perform this
filtering.

Fixes #7980
Description
When no suitable ImageWriter backend is found, the error message previously
only said "No ImageWriter backend found for {fmt}." which gives the user
no actionable information.
This change adds a clear install hint to the error message, telling the
user which package to install depending on their file format.
