use Image portal type to store image data. Using a Web Page never made
sense, it was working on python2 because the lax difference between
between text and bytes.

This test a svg contained in various portal types (Image, Web Page, )
with a png background image. The problem was with the background image.
This change does not affect the portal type containing the svg, only
the png background image.

is still needed, it would have to be reimplemented with other newer
technologies.
