Any plans to implement per-process battery drain stats?

Hi there,

I've checked the other issues, locally built the binary to play around with it but given the recency of the project, I'm not sure if you plan to eventually implement per process level stats/battery drain over time with nice graphs/charts? Current it is only system-view level. I bet this isn't easy, it is also the thing I miss the most now in Linux compared to other operating systems like Android(amazing), iOS etc.

I'm sure this is no easy feat. Also, thank you for your courage and hard work to take on building & maintaining this project!

This shouldn't be impossible to do, but I'm not sure if it is even in the scope of watt. I'll need to think about it.

I am, or rather, was working on a TUI for Watt's stats display where the currently collected statistics would be formatted in a nice set of charts, similar to BTOP. Before I took a break from working on watt, I was tabinating the stats TUI. We could probably put something simple in one of the tabs. Though I'm completely open to replacing something like BTOP on my screen through Watt. Scope-wise, I don't quite see an issue.

I plan to work on battery stats variables next on the v1 dev branch. I don't have an idea on how I want to implement per-process battery drain stats, but I'm considering some variables for overall battery data (avg drain/battery health/etc.) so I'll try to cover this while I'm working on battery stuff.

What about { drain-percentage-(1|5|N)m-for = "process-name" } or somethingg similar that is consistent?
