Description

When --self-contained-html is used we should provide links to any images in the HTML report. We should avoid duplicating the large data URI values, so it makes sense to use JavaScript to enable this functionality.

The links in the report column could be hidden by default and displayed via JavaScript, and the href destination could be taken from the associated img src. Similarly, the img could be an inactive link, enabled via JavaScript if enabled.

Research direction

Start by locating the implementation of --self-contained-html and the generated report markup for images and the report column. Check how the current HTML embeds image data, then verify that JavaScript exposes image links without duplicating large data URI values and that the links and image activation behave as described.
