x/pkgsite: count importers by module #80242

Description

@jba

Change the "imported by" metric to count the number of modules whose packages import the given package, rather than the number of importing packages.

Some packages are imported by many other packages, but those importing packages are part of large modules. For example, k8s.io/apimachinery/pkg/runtime is one of the top packages in the ecosystem by importer count, but it is just a helper module for Kubernetes, whose modules contain many packages that import it.
