Replace Paid Scrapers with ScrapeGraphAI in n8n

I just killed my Apify sub. [ScrapeGraphAI](https://github.com/ScrapeGraphAI/Scrapegraph-ai) is a free, open-source Python library that uses LLMs and graph logic to scrape any website — you describe what you want in plain English, the model figures out the selectors. [24.5k GitHub stars](https://github.com/ScrapeGraphAI/Scrapegraph-ai), [MIT licensed](https://github.com/ScrapeGraphAI/Scrapegraph-ai/blob/main/LICENSE), drops into n8n via the Code node. No CSS selectors, no XPath, no monthly bill.
