fix(svg): fallback to svg type when metadata parser fails on symbol-based SVGs

[lx3133584]

Problem

SVGs that define viewBox/dimensions on child <symbol> tags rather than the root <svg> element fail with 400 [IPX_INVALID_IMAGE] Cannot parse image metadata.

Root Cause

imageMeta extraction failed when root <svg> lacked explicit dimensions or viewBox, throwing an error and rejecting valid SVG files before SVGO sanitization / optimization.

Fix

Fallback to { type: "svg" } image metadata when the source buffer contains <svg markup or has a .svg extension, allowing SVG processing to proceed.

Testing

• Added unit test in test/svg.test.ts verifying processing of SVGs containing <symbol> and <use> tags without root dimensions.
• Verified all 453 test cases pass cleanly.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Bug Fixes

  • Improved SVG handling when image metadata cannot be parsed.
  • SVGs without root dimensions now process successfully while preserving <symbol> and <use> elements.
  • Other invalid image metadata errors continue to be reported with more diagnostic detail.

• Tests

  • Added coverage for SVGs containing root-level symbols and references.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The image metadata path now preserves processing for likely SVG inputs when metadata parsing fails. Other failures retain IPX_INVALID_IMAGE and include the original error as cause. A regression test covers dimensionless SVGs with <symbol> and <use> elements.

Changes

SVG metadata handling

Layer / File(s)	Summary
SVG fallback and regression coverage src/ipx.ts, test/svg.test.ts	Likely SVG inputs receive fallback metadata with undefined dimensions after parsing fails. Non-SVG failures include the original parsing error as cause. The regression test verifies that root-level <symbol> and <use> elements remain in the output.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 426bd

The PR is mergeable with explicit follow-up: the new test covers filename-based SVG detection but not the content-based fallback for extensionless identifiers, leaving that branch less protected against regression.

Exercise the content-based fallback.

processSVG() always calls ipx("test.svg") on Line 24. This test therefore enters the id.endsWith(".svg") branch in src/ipx.ts. It does not verify textSample.includes("<svg") for extensionless sources. Pass an extensionless identifier for this case, and keep a separate suffix test if both detection paths are required.
