I'm not entirely convinced that this perf script should make a network
request. In my opinion

* best would be if this template gets packaged in Debian
* alternatively print instructions how to install the template:

sudo mkdir /usr/share/d3-flame-graph
sudo wget -O /usr/share/d3-flame-graph/d3-flamegraph-base.html
https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/d3-flame-graph@4/dist/templates/d3-flamegraph-base.html

* or eventually just embed the entire template (66 KB) in the Python
file (not sure if this is permissible though, it's basically a minified
HTML/JS blob)?
* if the above options don't work, I'd recommend asking the user before
making the network request, and eventually persist the template
somewhere so it doesn't need to be downloaded every time

What do you think?


Cheers,
Andreas
