British Library iiif

The link to the images for the BL manuscripts needs to be updated (at least for the few ones that have been put online again)
https://www.bl.uk/research/digitised-manuscripts-3/
@eu-genia if you could show me for one manuscript how to retrieve the iiif manifest, then I could also add it for the rest :)

As far as I can see the list contains links of the type
https://iiif.bl.uk/uv/#?manifest=https://bl.digirati.io/iiif/ark:/81055/vdc_100054837854.0x000001 (BLorient480)
One can replace the entire link in graphic url from
<graphic url="http://www.bl.uk/manuscripts/Viewer.aspx?ref=or_480_fs001r"/> to
<graphic url="https://iiif.bl.uk/uv/#?manifest=https://bl.digirati.io/iiif/ark:/81055/vdc_100054837854.0x000001"/>
We can also of course use our viewer and not their Universal viewer, the manifest is clearly the part of the string after the word manifest, so in this case https://bl.digirati.io/iiif/ark:/81055/vdc_100054837854.0x000001; I will have to add some code to make it work at next restart

Maybe we could ask Luisa (@abausi can we?) to send us a spreadsheet with all Ethiopic mss and their links, then noone has to do the manual work and I can do the automatic refactoring for all
