Currently if the likely_formats is not met, it goes on to search all other formats. Which may not be needed by the application.
We can make it into 3 stages:
likely_formats: Checks those first, which is a hint given by the programmer that this file is very likely to be in that format. Say the user gave a .png file, then the library can start parsing using the png parser.
supported_formats: If likely_formats failed, it starts looking into the supported formats only, instead of looking into the entire map.
Every other format: If all else fails and the boolean argument must_be_one_of_likely_formats is false, then it starts checking against all other formats.
It is also possible to do it in another way, which is we add a single optional format at the top stage, called very_likely_format, which is hinted to the library by the programmer that this format must be checked first, as it is very likely true. Then it can go in likely_formats to look if it wasn't that format.
