Add image diff support in MR review

Problem to solve

Right now the MR review of this extension does not support image diff.

Image diffing is often required when writing a blog post or documentation. Right now I need to switch to external tools to do that, which is not a great workflow.

Proposal

It is not required to make a real diff of an image to the older one! Just show both images side by side would be a great MR benefit.

Here you can see how VS Code solve this in the git diff view.

Clicking on an image will give you extra information like image-size or file-size which also helps a lot in the review process.

It would be great to have this directly integrated into the MR review by just clicking on the file.
