Add Charts support similar to markviz

[mmc41]

First of all, thanks for this wonderful project. Very cool! Note, that this feature request for Charts also comes with a constructive suggestion about how to possibly implement it (see end of this request)

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I would like to be able to construct bar/line charts with mermaid using markdown syntax.

Describe the solution you'd like
The open source markvis project (https://github.com/geekplux/markvis) shows how this can be done with both syntax and an implementation. Unfortunately, the markvis appear to be abandoned but the code and markdown format looks like a good starting point.

Describe alternatives you've considered
A clear and concise description of any alternative solutions or features you've considered.

This would be a new diagram - need someone to step forward and take this on

Oh yes ..

A basic feature, which is missing.

Noting here that we should be using a YAML style syntax instead of a JSON-like one
All - key: value and never [{ key: value }]

Can I ask why? Just curious

Doesn't the syntax currently avoid {} and [] atm?
The current Mermaid config syntax is much more human-readable than JSON

The integration into Obsidian is my reason for this vote.

Not necessarily. I mean, {} are used to define members of a class in class diagrams. Not something I had considered before. Personally, I much prefer the hierarchical aspect of JSON.

Not for this particular case though

Line graphs in GitHub would be super cool. C.f. /1904labs/dom-to-image-more/pull/135

This is under development #4413

Closing as dupe

[nirname]

This may be kinda unfair to close this as a duplication because this was opened earlier. Nevertheless it is better to have one issue, please refer to a new one
