Will you also provide there an example for a custom chart with Apache eCharts?

Currently in the doc there is still the example with the old lib.

there are already [some examples](https://discourse.nodered.org/search?q=%40steve-mcl+%23dashboard-2+echart) on the forum that import echarts via a CDN. e.g. [this one](https://discourse.nodered.org/t/how-to-configure-echarts-in-dashboard-2/87259/4) by me!

@joepavitt Do we export echarts for user consumption in the template node?

Not currently, but there is good reason to. Open an issue?

Would this avoid having to load eCharts from a CDN? If so, then that may be a good reason (maybe?)
