Enable word and character count on CKEditor5Fields

[jsolly]

Context

I want to see the current character and word count while editing blog posts.

Ideal behavior

Word and Character count can be enabled by adding a configuration within CKEDITOR_5_CONFIGS.

Path Forward

I see a Word count and character count in the ckeditor5 docs.

There are two ways how you can inject the word count statistics into your page:

By using the WordCount#wordCountContainer property as shown in the example above.

By specifying where the word count feature should insert its container which can be done by using config.wordCount.container.

Would either of these methods be the way to implement this?

Things to consider

It might be nice to enable this on a container-by-container basis, but I am okay if enabling it inserts it into every CKEditor5Field.

I could probably pull this off with JS or HTMX, but it would be great if this could be native within ckeditor5.
