Evaluate and select a JavaScript charting package for use in Plant-Tracer.webapp.

Initial use case is the line graphs of #425 but a more general set of charts and graphs should be considered.

As a starting point, this list of JavaScript charting libraries looks reasonable: https://blog.logrocket.com/comparing-most-popular-javascript-charting-libraries.

Let's start by evaluating the free ones -- this area of the world of JavaScript libraries is relatively well-developed at least for static charts.

Noting that the iOS app used Chartist.js, which is one of the choices on the list referenced in the above comment.

This note doesn't have to bias our selection for webapp.
