Description

# Feature request

When metrics are not available for some files/buildings, they are currently set to zero. While this is fine behaviour, for metrics where higher is better (e.g. coverage) this does not work well. We should adjust this behaviour and allow for distinction between available metrics that are zero and unavailable metrics.

These unavailable metrics would lead to a flat grey building and be highlighted in the metrics view somehow (either a - where the number would be or a new category under secondary metrics thats called unavailable metrics)

## Description

As a user, I want see the difference between metrics that are zero and metrics that are unavailable.

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by tracing how unavailable metrics become zero and how building colors and the metrics view consume those values. Done means distinguishing unavailable metrics from genuine zero values in both the map and metrics view, with the presentation choice resolved.
