Carbon Footprint - RELATIVE_CARBON_FOOTPRINT metric renamed in favour of FINANCED_EMISSIONS_INTENSITY

Summary (What?)

We are replacing the metrics RELATIVE_CARBON_FOOTPRINT_SCOPE_1_2 and RELATIVE_CARBON_FOOTPRINT_SCOPE_3 by 2 new metrics that will have the same values and meaning, it will be just a renaming of the metrics so the metrics offered have a more meaninful name

Business impact (Why?)

We are updating and streamlining the Carbon Footprint product to enhance clarity, consistency, and maintainability. These changes involve renaming certain metrics and deprecating others to ensure alignment across products and services. By simplifying the metric structure and standardizing their availability, we aim to improve usability and reduce complexity, providing a more seamless and reliable experience.
