Description

**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
Many times our users see queries in their DB coming from Metabase but they don't know what are the queries for. If we add in the driver remarks the words:
1) sync
2) scan
3) fingerprint

they should identify which process is being problematic on their instances without our intervention

**Describe the solution you'd like**
Add the associated Metabase process to the driver remark

**Describe alternatives you've considered**
None

**How important is this feature to you?**
Important for debugging

**Additional context**
NA

Research direction

Start by tracing how Metabase generates driver remarks for database queries and where the sync, scan, and fingerprint processes issue their queries. Check how remarks are tested, then verify that each process is identifiable in the resulting database query remarks without changing unrelated remarks.
