Image scaling could have a document-wide DPI value with a useful default, or specifiable by keyword argument Outside of `quadwriter/markdown`, perhaps there could be three ways to handle scaling besides...

Maybe allow us (Quadwriter users) to supply the raw PNG or PDF bytes to the Q-expression and we can convert the picts ourselves using [`convert`](https://docs.racket-lang.org/file/convertible.html)?

OK I see what you are getting at. Q-expressions elements can only be strings or other q-expressions. I think I have been confusing q-expressions with `quad`s. So I get why...
