Fix graph view when unrecognised sites are enabled

Some issue with nodes being added twice break the graph view in this scenario currently.

Doesn't capture data in FF 96.0.3

Hi,

I was missing Ligthbeam in Mozillas Addons and some research brought me here but I realized the 4.2 Version is not capturing any sites on Firefox 96.03.

System:Linux 5.16.4-arch1-1 GNU/Linux

I used the latest release xpi to install it on a new profile.

I would like to help fixing the bug with providing further information if needed.
Thank you very much for continuing this awesome addon and keeping it alive. It's one of the few hands on ways to show people how they are tracked though the web.

Investigate Chrome compatibility

Making the extension available in Chrome would lower the barrier of entry.

Investigate high CPU usage on Brightbeam interface

Users sometimes experience slowdowns or even crashes due to high CPU usage which seems to be associated with leaving the Brightbeam interface browser tab open for a long time
