[ENH]: add switch to select exponential growth in forecast

Thanks for this nice tool! Saw the recently added forcast option and appreciate it very much!

One idea from my side: since growth is often exponentially with packages on Github, I think it could be nice to add a switch to choose between linear or exponential growth.

Cheers,
Sebastian

Since you already provide a "logarithmic scale" this is easily done by first transforming the data to their log-values and then using a Linear Least Squares regression.

Unfortunately I am not very familiar with java-script. I am just a user at this point 😕
