Description

Steps to reproduce

Some time ago (unfortunately I can't say if this has to do with a specific version of tables) when I created a link to a image saved inside Nextcloud the table did not only show the link to the file but also a preview image (very little image).
Now, when you create a column with type "link" the table does not show any previews anymore.

The preview of the image does exist - this is also visible while you compile the fields:
grafik

But inside the table itself there is no preview - but there was one some versions ago:
grafik

Expected behavior

See a preview image of a link to a image

Only linktext is shown

Research direction

Reproduce the issue in the Nextcloud Tables app using version 0.8.0, a link column, and an image URL, comparing the field editor preview with the rendered table. Trace the link-column rendering path and identify why the image preview is omitted; done means image links display a preview in the table while ordinary links still show their link text.
