svg support for icon, comment image, etc..

Hello,

It appears that Alteryx does not accept .svg (or other vector image format) for icons (I think to custom macro icons), image in comment, etc...

I think that would be a great idea, especially to manage web integration and support of different resolutions.
here an example of a svg logo I made :

As you can see you can zoom in/out without loose quality.

For reference, here is long blog post about why SVG is great : https://bumpsetcreative.com/10-reasons-the-image-format-svg-is-rocking-the-internet/

To sum it up :

1) SVGs are widely supported2) SVGs are speedy3) SVGs scale perfectly4) SVGs are high resolution5) SVGs can be styled through CSS6) SVGs can be animated7) SVGs can be rearranged easily😎 SVGs support transparency9) SVGs are great for readability10) SVGs stand out

Just saying, as you can see here (https://github.com/biolab/orange3/pull/6444/commits/de963d21705cdf866d6a3f031f4286fe20b74968 ) even Orange Data Mining which is Open Source use svg for icons, etc..

And Alteryx still use matricial for that. Frankly, it would be simpler and faster to put all icons in svg and have the same in every Alteryx product.
