Description

Hey, thanks for you effort in this library, it really is amazing.

I came about an issue with the fork project mentioned here giraffe-fsharp/Giraffe.ViewEngine#23

It is currently not possible to render a chart to json in a giraffe backend via toJson gChart as it was added in version 4.1.0 which doesn't work with giraffe due to a presence of forked Giraffe.ViewEngine.StrongName package

Components.fs(286,9): error FS0001: All elements of a list must be implicitly convertible to the type of the first element, which here is 
'Giraffe.ViewEngine.HtmlElements.XmlAttribute (Giraffe.ViewEngine.StrongName, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=028aa8e2a326f4d0)'. 
This element has type 'Giraffe.ViewEngine.HtmlElements.XmlAttribute (Giraffe.ViewEngine, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null)'. 
[Components.fsproj::TargetFramework=net8.0]

Repro steps

dotnet new giraffe -o plot
cd plot
dotnet add package Plotly.Net
dotnet build

Expected behavior
