Improve the trending algorithm #66

The current trending view for the packages and themes, is in my opinion, weak: already popular packages are always there.

The algorithm should be refactored to advantage less popular packages/themes. Popularity of the package should be taken into consideration: the more popular the package is, the least "trending points" it gets.

👍 Also, a 'view more' link would be helpful. Now all I can do is view the most popular today, this week or this month. Surprise, it's the same six packages in different orders. Yay!

@tofagerl You can actually see a full list and filter it here.

You reach it my clicking "see all", on the side of the new/recently updated sections
