Looks good to me, although it would make ox-html depend on ox-latex
which may or may not be desirable. . .  For instance math stuff is
handled internally by ox-html, it seems (correct me if I'm wrong).
While TikZ clearly is a LaTeX feature, producing SVGs are more of a
way of support this type of figures in html output, although it
depends on TeX binaries.

File links to tikz files [[file:pix.pgf]] (e.g. produced with R or
matplotlib) won't be understood with this patch.  It should
automatically convert the picture to an svg figure, I think.  Perhaps
support for file links can be added later.
