Deleting loaded image results in failing export with `Image doesnt have any image data` error

[marwie]

Describe the bug Export fails if a material references a deleted image

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Add image texture loaded from disc to material
2. Export glTF
3. All works fine, no errors
4. delete image from disc
5. observe error

Expected behavior Successful export without the referenced image - just a warning/error log that an image texture is missing
