/**
 * Builds the fragile serialized-data needles used to detect, via a `LIKE`/`NOT LIKE` on the
 * `_imagify_data` postmeta, whether a media has a successful next-gen size or was permanently
 * refused by the API.
 *
 * These strings depend on the exact key order Imagify writes when serializing a size's
 * optimization data (see `Imagify\Optimization\Data\WP::update_size_optimization_data()`), so any
 * consumer must go through this class rather than retyping the literal.
 *
 * Two other copies of the same literals currently exist in `classes/Bulk/WP.php` (around lines
 * 320 and 325, for the `permanent_error` and `success` markers respectively) and in
 * `classes/Optimization/Process/AbstractProcess::has_avif()`. They predate this helper and were
 * left untouched to avoid destabilizing branches with in-flight changes; whoever next touches
 * those call sites should consider adopting this class instead.
