Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

There's no problem this solves, it's a gimmick that's perhaps cool.

Describe the solution you'd like

https://star-history.com/ provides a chart of how many stars a GitHub project has. See here for OC. We could embed this image somewhere in the Readme or in the docs:

Describe alternatives you've considered

We could instead or also use GitHub Readme Stats (though that seems only for individual profiles, not repos) or GitHub Stats (see OC stats here).

Research direction
Locate the main README.md file in the repository root. Add an image embed with the Star History chart URL from star history.com for the OrchardCore repository, e.g., `![Star History](https://api.star history.com/svg?repos=OrchardCMS/OrchardCore&type=Date)`. Consider placing it under a new 'Star History' section. Verify the image renders correctly by previewing the markdown.
