Added another self-hosted vendor (glycemia.io) to the docs and docs wizard.

Documentation generated and validated locally without any breaking changes.

@psonnera, recognizing that salesforce, mongodb atlas, railway et al are just as much vendors as these four, is there any opportunity to consider removing these from the landing page and integrating it more fully alongside the other vendors?

@sspt, who is sponsoring this, what kind of commercial support is available? I'd like to ensure we have lots of solutions for people to depend on and ensure longevity for Nightscout.

@sulkaharo, @psonnera I really do want sustainable solutions for the long term and grow concerned when people drop significantly below the $7/month rate based on my 20+ years of experience in this industry, for something people want to depend on by default. Ideally, something like "cloud native foundation" or similar would be sponsoring the docs, and vendors who are contributing appropriately would be added.

@sspt, and @AndyLow91, please let me know how we can better distribute the load for more people in a sustainable way. If not financial or direct development, what commitments are reasonable?

@bewest I don't see them on the landing page... they're in the DIY list and the only difference with other PaaS is they're not free. Juggling with the changes is time consuming recently. Eventually if things get more stable we'll see how to rework that. I could also start chasing other hosted Nightscout services to add them to the list (and I do know some) but honestly that's not the point that interest me the most in the documentation. For the sake of inclusiveness and competition (that usually benefits buyers) more choices are good. The long term aspect I can't judge and tell. Regarding glycemia.io I'm not convinced the product is ready for sales yet (based on 5 minutes trying to get something more than creating a site - very easy indeed - out of it).
