Description

Make PluginChart optionally reuse some other lib already in Tiki to make js-based charts (raphaeljs, chartjs, d3.js, etc)

By default PluginChart was able to produce these charts:
https://doc.tiki.org/Spreadsheet+Graphics+and+Charts#Select_the_Graphic_Type_and_Output_Format

But it would make total sense to have the option to produce js-based or svg-based charts, like the ones currently produced by the Spreadsheet js feature ( , reuing raphael.js lib), or the ones in theory available in the PluginChartJS plugin and lib.

Strategic feature to get Spreadsheets and charts out of them in the game again.

There is another request to have the png & jpg versions of the charts produced again (they are currently not shown), since this implies an easy solution for charts in PDF reports working automagically without requiring complex solutions to get js-based charts incluided in PDF reports.
This request, though, is to have an some optional parameter added to get the chart produced with some JS lib already in Tiki like the ones cited above. And we will see elsewhere how to ensure that they can be included in the printed PDF, etc.
