feat: add SVG progress bar support with color and shape options

What changed

Added SVG-based progress bar rendering as an alternative to the existing Unicode text bars. Controlled entirely via workflow inputs — no code changes needed after this commit.

New workflow inputs

Input	Default	Description
`BAR_STYLE`	`"text"`	`"text"` for original Unicode bars, `"svg"` for colored SVG bars
`BAR_COLOR`	`"#90CAF9"`	Fill color of the progress bar
`BAR_TRACK_COLOR`	`"#172f45"`	Background track color of the bar
`BAR_RADIUS`	`"0"`	`"0"` for square edges, `"4"` for subtle rounded edges

Files changed

sources/manager_environment.py — added BAR_STYLE, BAR_COLOR, BAR_TRACK_COLOR, BAR_RADIUS env vars
sources/graphics_list_formatter.py — updated make_graph() to branch between text and SVG output

Preview

`BAR_RADIUS: "0"` — square

`BAR_RADIUS: "4"` — subtle round

Usage

- uses: acheronx0577/waka-readme-stats@master
  with:
    WAKATIME_API_KEY: ${{ secrets.WAKATIME_API_KEY }}
    GH_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GH_TOKEN }}
    BAR_STYLE: "svg"
    BAR_COLOR: "#90CAF9"
    BAR_TRACK_COLOR: "#172f45"
    BAR_RADIUS: "0"

Swap BAR_RADIUS between "0" (square) and "4" (subtle round). Any hex color works for BAR_COLOR and BAR_TRACK_COLOR.

I saw the new bars in your profile @acheronx0577 they match your overall aesthetics and modernism.
Neat PR.
Allow me to reproduce and test it independently.

other than that, everything is else is really nice.
i agree with solusops here, it looks modern, slick and very nice in my opinion.

…ndering in graphics_list_formatter.py The Waka Readme workflow file has been removed. Additionally, the make_graph function in graphics_list_formatter.py has been updated to focus solely on text progress bar rendering, eliminating the SVG rendering logic for improved clarity and maintainability.
