Description

**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
Currently authors can embed Tableau dashboard with an iframe but if there are multiple on a page (as there are with data stories) this can cause problems.

**Describe the solution you'd like**
Rather than directly embedding an iframe, Tableau recommends using their JS embed code. This should allow us to support multiple visualizations on a page without issues.

**Reference**
Jira DP-17135
