Metrics for Websites not stored for more than 7 days (historic data / representative sample)

Problem:
------
This is the case on the default Website Dashboard as well as for the Custom Instana Dashboards.
When checking this in detail, we recognized no separate metrics and that the data is completely based on website (trace) data.

The views and data are not consistent and misleading from our perspective.
Please check.

For Use Cases:
- Compare earlier weeks user/website behavior with this week.
- Check Website behavior in the past, max 365 days in the past.

Desired Solution:
