security: add safeImageUrl, un-break M-5's over-blocking of image-context SVG data URIs

M-5 made safeUrl() block data:image/svg+xml everywhere, including the
image-only sinks (<img src>, CSS url()) that Gallery's default images and
other SVG placeholders rely on. Loaded as an image, an SVG is rasterized
and never executes an inline <script>/onload= -- that only happens when
it's navigated to or loaded as an <iframe> document -- so M-5 over-blocked
the safe contexts and broke every published Gallery (and other components
using an SVG placeholder) using safeUrl's default images in prod.

Adds safeImageUrl(): identical javascript:/vbscript: handling to safeUrl,
but treats data: as an allowlist of image/* subtypes instead of a
blocklist -- allows all data:image/* (including svg+xml, with or without
base64), still blocks data:text/html and any other non-image data: type.

Swapped to safeImageUrl at IMAGE-src / CSS-image url() sinks only:
- Gallery.tsx img src + lightbox data-lb-src
- ImageBlock.tsx img src (toHtml)
- Logo.tsx / Navbar.tsx logo <img> src (their href/link targets keep safeUrl)
- style-helpers.ts sanitizeCssValue's url(...) handling (background-image
  for HeroSimple/BackgroundSection/Section/CallToAction)

Left on safeUrl (href/iframe/form-action/navigation sinks, where
data:image/svg+xml must stay blocked): ButtonLink, Icon link, SocialLinks,
Menu/Navbar link hrefs, PricingTable buttonHref, _cta-helpers,
ContentSlider buttonHref, FeaturesGrid buttonUrl, FormContainer action
(via form-relay-wiring), MapEmbed/VideoBlock iframe src.
