[Vuejs]-Webpack url-loader PDF data URI link for Vue site stops working in iOS 14

Update: after some help off SO, an acquaintance turned up this similar problem, which also came up with a solution: turning the base64 URI into a blob and passing that data url. Which also solves my problem. Though that SO doesn’t have an accepted answer, so I can’t vote to close my own question as a duplicate, alas.
