Popularity takes too long to calculate #36

The popularity script is by far the slowest one, because of the API search limits. We need to find a better way to calculate popularity. Simplest solution is to parallelize libraries across multiple github tokens.

We will switch to using GitHub's dependency graph. It's not very accurate and only finds dependencies from pom.xml files but it's at least quick and can be used to provide info.
