EPUB3 -> HTMLZ conversion does not fix background-image url

[Ivan Kozik]

I tested calibre 6.9 on Windows 10 22H2.

The input file is https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/28885.epub3.images via https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/28885 and I have also attached it here, as per the instructions.

In the book, the text "Either the well was very deep" is inside a <table class="rabbithole"> and has the CSS:

table.rabbithole { background-image: url(1497581800467652904_p0003-rabbithole.png); }

When reading the EPUB3 in calibre, the background image renders fine. But when converting to HTMLZ, the image file is renamed, while the background-image url is not rewritten, so the background image no longer appears.

Fixed in branch master. The fix will be in the next release. calibre is usually released every alternate Friday.
