Fail to render a pptx file that contains a mermaid graph in which an external image is embedded

Bug description

I made a mermaid graph where an external image (e.g. https://iconscout.com/ms-icon-310x310.png) is embedded and I am trying to use that entire resulting mermaid graph in a pptx file by processing a qmd file with the option format: pptx. However, I fail to render a pptx file that contains the mermaid graph, with an error ERROR: Internal Error: couldn't determine svg dimensions, although I successfully render an HTML out of the qmd file in question.

Steps to reproduce

Please process the following qmd file to render pptx and HTML files:

---
format:
  pptx: default
  html: default
---


<script src="https://unpkg.com/mermaid@8.0.0-rc.8/dist/mermaid.min.js"></script>

## External image on the web

```{mermaid}
graph TD
    A[Christmas] -->|Get money| B(Go shopping)
    B --> C{Let me think}
    C -->|One| D[<img src='https://iconscout.com/ms-icon-310x310.png' width='40' height='40' />]
    C -->|Two| E[iPhone]
    C -->|Three| F[Car]
```

## External image on the local folder

```{mermaid}
graph TD
    A[Christmas] -->|Get money| B(Go shopping)
    B --> C{Let me think}
    C -->|One| D[<img src='./ms-icon-310x310.png' width='40' height='40' />]
    C -->|Two| E[iPhone]
    C -->|Three| F[Car]
```

Expected behavior

The following image made using mermaid with an external image should be displayed in a pptx file that Quarto produces:

Actual behavior

On the preview pane in VSCode, we can see an incomplete preview, which means that the external image is not shown in the resulting mermaid graph:
