shr is an HTML renderer.  eww is a web browser.  It's like the
difference between Gecko and Firefox.

eww doesn't make much sense as a `mm-text-html-renderer' value/

shr does render images inline, except in tables.  Emacs doesn't provide
the necessary control of the buffer to render stuff like


text text text text text text text
--------- text text text text text
| image | text text text text text
--------- text text text text text
text text text text text

which would be necessary for doing images inside tables without the
tables becoming illegible by the presence of the images.
