Used carbon intensity is not reported when live intensity is unavailable and prediction is before actual #31

The used carbon intensity in predicted consumption is not reported if the live carbon intensity could not be fetched AND the prediction is before the actual consumption (i.e. epochs_before_pred < monitor_epochs):

CarbonTracker: The following components were found: GPU with device(s) GeForce RTX 2060.
CarbonTracker: 
Predicted consumption for 3 epoch(s):
        Time:   0:00:15
        Energy: 0.000195 kWh
        CO2eq:  0.057404 g
        This is equivalent to:
        0.000477 km travelled by car
CarbonTracker: Live carbon intensity could not be fetched for your location. Defaulted to average carbon intensity for EU-28 in 2017 of 294.21 gCO2/kWh.
CarbonTracker: 
Actual consumption for 3 epoch(s):
        Time:   0:00:15
        Energy: 0.000186 kWh
        CO2eq:  0.054714 g
        This is equivalent to:
        0.000454 km travelled by car
CarbonTracker: Finished monitoring.

Fixed in release v1.1.7 - Updated default/fallback value for when live carbon intensity cannot be fetched.
