With HDR-capable TV becoming commonplace, why can’t we have a HDR format for pictures that takes advantage of this HDR capability?

Please don’t confuse this with the single HDR image that is created post processing. Displaying that image on a ‘HDR’ image will not take advantage of the HDR capability of the TV

HDR in pictures is usually achieved by taking three separate photos – one bright one, one regular one, and one dark one. The brightest, darkest, and mediumest spots are put where they are supposed to be.

HDR doesn’t actually refer to taking three pictures. All HDR means is that whatever you’re using can show very deep blacks and very bright whites. It’s basically a high-contrast picture/video.
