Most people use Perfetto through the UI, but nothing in it pointed to the Discord server, so few of them found it. Link to it next to the docs and bug report entries in the sidebar and on the home page. Also offer it in the trace parse and fetch error dialogs, which is where people most often get stuck and need help.

Part of a stack that makes Discord the main place to ask questions about Perfetto, with the mailing list kept as an alternative.

Testing: Type-checked with tsc and ran the format and lint presubmit. I did not check it visually because the local wasm build takes too long, so please look at the CI UI build.
