 To determine if a developer is using an SVG in a menu, `add_menu_page`
 checks for a string beginning with `data:image/svg+xml;base64,`.

 [https://css-tricks.com/probably-dont-base64-svg/ SVGs aren't required to
 be base64 encoded] and encoding with base64 can increase the size of the
 attribute.

 The check ought to be modified to allow for additional encodings.
