2.18 Recency Metadata

FOCUS supports the ability for data generators to provide metadata indicating 1) what portion of a FOCUS dataset artifact is complete (either in total, or per time sector), and 2) how recently it has been updated. This metadata allows practitioners to understand whether a given subset of FOCUS data is subject to further change, which informs when and whether they can perform various FinOps functions such as chargeback.
