Use Metric Pull Request

This is an metric that overviews the idea of using "Use Statistics" or how many people use the software to measure the software value in a specific area. If the software lacks use then you know it needs either improvement or more advertisement.

Thanks for writing this up @bryanprichard13. I'll dig more into this and bring it up in our next community meeting (next Thursday).

In the meantime, please sign the commits following DCO bot's advice 🤖

I think the "use metric" is covered in other working groups. At most, "usage" levels are a way to measure a) the value of the experience/skill in an project and 2) the risk of getting involved with the project.
