Add support for custom queries

Kudos on siridb excellent work there,
I'd like to ask whether it makes sense to support the plugin with the ability to specify custom queries by a text field, which apparently isn't possible now.
For example I wanted to implement a graph where limited by top 5 entries, and found that it's not possible (at least for me) to do it in grafana directly.
Not sure if this will help you to build your top 5 entries query, but it is possible to use a raw query by toggling to "edit mode". The capital keywords like __START__ are replaced by Grafana, for example to a start timestamp. The plugin will understand which time factor (for example: seconds or milliseconds) must be used to convert a timestamp.
