Not sure how much of help UX can be here.

I wonder if (expert) users want an option to keep this. With all the discussion
around WebP and the upcoming formats that also violate our backward
compatibility policy it might be desired by some to keep the document working.
Not much of an issue in case of SVG but we should have a consistent solution.

Option a1) Tools > Options > Load/Save > General: "[ ] Store fallback graphics
in documents" (on/off toggles this for SVG, WebP, JPEG XL, AVIF...)
Option a2) Tools > Options > Writer > Compatibility... and the same as above
(and the equivalent tabs on other modules)
Option a3) Use expert options to control the fallback
Option b) Tools > Options > Load/Save > Images: "Store fallback PNG images in
the document for [ ] SVG, [ ] WebP..."
Option c) Use File > Properties to control the fallback images per document
similar to "Save preview image with the document"
Option d) Just deprecate the fallback and drop in the next version
Option e) Keep fallback and remove manually (kind of Compress or Clean command)


My take: d) + a3) for SVG and c) + a1) for the default for content with
backward compatibility issues.
