Description

It's not unheard of to store images in databases as blobs. We should have a layer that draws this (perhaps even on-disk image files for PLACE, idk)

Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing layer implementations and how ggsql accesses database values. Determine the intended image sources, including database blobs and on-disk files for PLACE, and define what the new layer should support before implementation. Done means the image layer is integrated and its supported inputs are documented or tested.
