What will the feature do?
Generate a stack plot of some of the useful metrics in .map files, plotted against time. Extends #336
Because the elements are static I should be able to make the graph a little prettier and more readable.
What will the feature not do?
Provide any configuration options for what is displayed/what order it is plotted in.
Description
Please provide a description of the new feature and if will improve or solve a problem.
Currently there is a lot of useful data in .map files that can be challenging to extract without some know-how, so I wanted to add the ability to quickly plot these similar to the fitacf version.
