Implement DataCite Usage Tracker

Consider adding support for the DataCite Usage Tracker: https://support.datacite.org/docs/datacite-usage-tracker

The DataCite Usage Tracker, currently in its early release phase, offers a solution for repositories seeking to monitor data usage. The DataCite Usage Tracker aligns with the principles of the COUNTER Code of Practice for Research Data but eliminates the need for custom log processing. Instead, it automatically logs usage events, forwards them to DataCite, and generates usage reports. Key advantages include:

• Simple Client-Side Implementation: Repositories embed a JavaScript tracker in their landing pages that automatically collects usage data and sends it to DataCite.
• Simplified Reporting: DataCite’s analytics processing service generates monthly usage reports for repositories from the submitted usage data. Repositories do not need to generate these reports themselves.
• Privacy-Focused: Never retains personally identifiable information.

The DataCite Usage Tracker aims to assist repositories in monitoring web-based usage. Repositories interested in also tracking machine/API usage can set up log processing and submit their machine/API usage data to DataCite separately.
