Improve pipeline plot

[edublancas]

The output plot is pretty boring:

We're using pygraphviz to generate it and it has lots of customization options to make it better.

Here's the code that generates the plot:

ploomber/src/ploomber/dag/dag.py

Line 787 in 068df14

def plot(self, output='embed'):

ploomber/src/ploomber/dag/dag.py

Line 820 in f6013f9

def _to_graph(self, only_current_dag=False, return_graphviz=False):

The fix involves checking the options we have in https://graphviz.org/ to make the plot prettier

To get started, you can clone one example and generate one plot: https://docs.ploomber.io/en/latest/user-guide/templates.html

one option we should have is to only show task names (hide products)

• option to hide products
• document option to hide products in the .rst docs
• improve the plot style (colors, font size, etc)
