What's the most efficient way to get from an UIImage to an Skia ImageBitmap?

There is the way to convert the UIImage to an byteArray and read that with Skia, but I wonder if someone encountered this before and found an efficient solution for this problem.

Here is some code to do so:

Thank you.

Unfortunately the code in toSkiaImage() leads to wrong colored Images if they come from Apple Photos UIImages 🤷‍♂️

The PNG way works, but it memory inefficient.

I somehow hope that someone with a deep understanding of UIImage and SKIA may be able to build a low-level converter.
