Description

We should at least add a config option to add tags. Maybe also support dashboard folders, unless that's already possible 'outside' of the generation via the provisioning api.

Research direction

The issue names mixins and Grafana dashboard generation but no files or tests. Start by locating the mixin or dashboard-generation entry point, then review how Grafana provisioning handles folders. Done should include a defined configuration path for dashboard tags and a clear decision on whether folder support is in scope.
