Allow for more user flexibility in scenario selection

[fidelthomet]

currently technically all dropdowns/options are currently treated the same and can overwrite

• variables
• regions
• runs (model+scenario)
• strings (for string interpolation)

In practice the first dropdown is used for variables and regions and the following for runs. Often by making use of string interpolation to have for example one dropdown for warming level and another one for CDR availability while always showing different policy levels in a panel.

Redesigning the way options are implemented could allow users to choose for themselves which attribute of a run is shown in a panel.
