Description
At present, we expose the option to filter between multiple Redpanda Clusters in some dashboards based on a label redpanda_cloud_data_cluster_name, which has been carried forward from previous/other uses of the dashboards.
We should make this more generic and potentially document its use to the point of examples of how to add appropriate labels to clusters' metrics when scraping.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the dashboards that filter on redpanda_cloud_data_cluster_name and identify how cluster labels are used. Define a generic labeling approach and document scraping examples; done means multi-cluster filtering no longer depends on the Redpanda-specific label and the usage guidance is included.
