Issue: Highlights or notes added in a browser on iOS or Android sync to Calibre on PC but are not visually rendered in the viewer.

What I tried:
* Enabled content server
* Enabled the setting: Preferences > Sharing over the net > Advanced > Allow unauthenticated local connections to make changes.
* Accessed a book in Firefox on Android, added notes, they do save locally.
* Pressed "Sync" in the Calibre browser app.
* Checked the book in Calibre source library---it syncs, but the notes made on devices are not visually rendered in the book content in Viewer.
* Tried a couple rounds of reloading book in browser, restarting Calibre, re-syncing the book from browser. Same result.

System details:
* Calibre 5.14 for Windows 10 x64
* Samsung Galaxy phone, Android 11, Firefox browser
