mmdc cannot render graphs that include hyperlinks.

[MichaelJFishmanBA]

Describe the bug
mmdc cannot render graphs that use hyperlinks.

To Reproduce
Create a file link.mmd with the code

graph LR
    A[<a href='https://google.com'>google</a>]

run

mmdc -i link.mmd -o link.svg

Open link.svg in chrome, and note that it is broken.

Expected behavior

The svg looks like the graph below with a clickable link (GitHub renders it correctly):

graph LR
    A[<a href='https://google.com'>google</a>]

Loading

Or like the output of mermaid.live

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: macOS Monterey 12.4
• Browser Chrome
• mmdc version: 8.11.0

Additional context
I'm trying to use mmdc as part of a python program to generate graphs with links.

Hey @MichaelJFishmanBA the problem may be a very old mermaid version (8.11.0), that you are using. We have a challenge updating memraid-cli for mac users #288 Maybe you can try to use our docker image? With docker, you should get access to the latest mermaid-cli release.

@MindaugasLaganeckas Using the docker version worked. Thanks!

Fantastic! 😄 We should look into #288 sometime soon 😄
