feat(metrics): allow change ColdStart function_name dimension

[leandrodamascena]

Issue number: #6309

Summary

This PR adds the ability to configure a custom function name for metrics, which is especially useful when capturing cold start metrics. It provides more control over metrics naming, solving the issue where CDK deployments can result in random characters added to function names.

Changes

We adding in this PR:

1. A new function_name parameter to the Metrics constructor
2. Support for the POWERTOOLS_METRICS_FUNCTION_NAME environment variable
3. A prioritized resolution mechanism for determining the function name:
   • Explicitly provided constructor parameter (highest priority)
   • Environment variable value (second priority)
   • Lambda context function name (lowest priority/fallback)

User experience

from aws_lambda_powertools import Metrics
from aws_lambda_powertools.utilities.typing import LambdaContext

metrics = Metrics(function_name="my-function-name")


@metrics.log_metrics(capture_cold_start_metric=True)
def lambda_handler(event: dict, context: LambdaContext): ...
   pass
