[Bug 1559070] [NEW] SVG icons not shown / "yelp </path/to/file.page>" fails

The latest yelp version in Xenial doesn't show SVG icons in Ubuntu Help.
Example icon:

/usr/share/icons/ubuntu-mono-light/status/22/system-devices-panel.svg

SVG files are displayed in GNOME Help, but there they use relative paths
to the files (included in package). Don't understand why that would make
a difference, though.

Another issue is that calling yelp with the path to a .page file as
argument fails with: "Unknown Error - URL cannot be shown".

Downgrading to the Wily version 3.16.1-1ubuntu1 of yelp and libyelp0
fixes both issues.
