Description
We should make a way for non-browsers to test their WebVTT implementations. Maybe a ref test comparison to a png rather than to a .html?

Research direction
The issue names only the test suite, WebVTT implementations, HTML references, and PNG comparisons; no specific files or tests are identified. Start by locating the existing browser-based reference tests and determine how non-browser implementations could compare results. Done means a documented, runnable test path for non-browser implementors with an agreed comparison method.
