Analytics charts: translucent typical fill, last-week tail on week view

Render the seasonal typical estimate as a translucent muted fill (no
stroke, same 0.6 opacity as the data) instead of a grey line, on both day
and week views. Continue the fixed Monday-Monday week view with last
week's curve from the current bucket to the end of the week (secondary
accent, translucent fill), so the chart is useful early in the week and
last week is gradually replaced by the current one.

Gate the typical estimate on history spanning twice the view's full time
(third day / third week on) and the last-week tail on data reaching into
last week at all; the legend shows each entry only when present.

The week range is aligned to Monday 00:00 UTC (the current week keeps the
accent color and is truncated at the current bucket, never drawing fake
zeroes for the future). Both the week and day views overlay a **"typical"

zeroes for the future). Since the window is fixed Monday-to-Monday, **last
week's curve** continues the graph from the current bucket to the end of
the week in the secondary accent (`--accent2`, translucent fill like the
current week), so the chart shows useful data
on Monday too and last week is gradually replaced by the current week;
the tail is only drawn when the recorded data reaches into last week.
