Add usage trend to home page

This is an alternative implementation of #755 that adds the graph of npm-compare to the front-page instead of to the documentation

Closes #755

Is there anything I can assist with regarding this PR?

Hi @WikiRik, you might need a consideration on this change request.

Thanks for that heads-up! @LitoMore

I indeed read the conversation there (do note that that repo is private and we should be mindful on how much we share links to it on a public repo), but in this case the website does provide a service that we like. I'll look around what possible alternatives are, but we've interacted well with the creator so we likely will give it the benefit of the doubt for now

Edit; it seems that the original PR is not accessible anymore, so I can't easily show you that conversation. Which also does impact my argument

Hi, I'm the creator of npm-compare.

I understand that my account was likely potentially fraudulent because of the numerous pull requests I sent to promote my website, npm-compare.com. I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this might have caused.

My intention behind creating npm-compare was to offer a valuable tool to the developer community. Eager to share it globally, I made the error of over - promoting it through mass pull requests.

I now recognize my mistake, understanding that this behavior not only disrupted project maintainers but also violated GitHub's rules. I've learned from this experience. Going forward, I will strictly adhere to GitHub's guidelines and use only proper channels to promote my projects.

I have now deleted the promotional pull requests. I once again apologize for any disruption my actions may have caused.

I deeply appreciate the work you all do, and I don’t want to add to your burden.
