[RFC] deploy to netlify button on every github repo

[swyxio]

poc here only works for github right now but this is pretty much all the code needed to do this

var { host, pathname } = document.location
if (host === "github.com" && typeof pathname === "string") {
  const pathsplit = pathname.split("/")
  if (pathsplit.length > 2) {
    const user = pathsplit[1]
    const repo = pathsplit[2]
    const newUrl = `https://app.netlify.com/start/deploy?repository=https://github.com/${user}/${repo}`
    var container = document.createElement("li")
    var newBtn = document.createElement("a")
    newBtn.setAttribute("class", "btn btn-sm")
    newBtn.setAttribute("href", newUrl)
    newBtn.setAttribute("target", "_blank")
    var newContent = document.createTextNode("💎 Deploy To Netlify")
    newBtn.appendChild(newContent)
    container.appendChild(newBtn)

    var el = document.getElementsByClassName("pagehead-actions")[0].children[0]
    el.parentNode.insertBefore(container, el)
  }
}

I am getting this my browser and it is cool but can it only be enabled for repos with a netlify.toml file or be turned off in the extension settings or something. With Github now showing heaps of extra details in that bar, I have seen it take up the entire width of my screen with this extension and also it is sort of annoying seeing it on repos that are not related to websites or Netlify.

i havent had the time to do this but i think it should just be one more api request. no promises on when i can figure this out but pr welcome
