Improved Handling of Sony RAW (ARW) files and Photos behavior fixed.

After some time of using other apps to work with raw files out of the Sony A7RV, I noticed that recent patches to MacOS (now at 13.4.1) appear to have resolved the issue with .ARW files showing generic icons in the Finder. Now they show a thumbnail, in the way other RAW files and JPEG files show up. Also, the bizarre behavior of Photos when editing or otherwise manipulating RAW images seems to have been addressed. Now when editing RAW files I'm no longer presented with low rez, seemingly out of focus images after applying changes. Good to have desirable and expected behavior back in Photos.
