I’m trying to generate JSON from the dot graph:

```auto
digraph G {
  a1 [image="image.png"];
}

```

However, when I run

```auto
dot.exe -Tjson input.dot -o output.json

```

I get the following warning

```auto
Warning: No loadimage plugin for "png:json"

```

The resulting `output.json` doesn’t use `I` draw command from here [xdot drawing commands](https://graphviz.org/docs/outputs/canon/#xdot)

Is it possible to generate a JSON file that contains the draw image command?
