Adds beef vs. lentils production comparison to the Exemplary Equivalents section of the carbonboard visualization. Shows users how their compute emissions compare to the CO2 emitted by producing equivalent masses of high-impact (beef, 27.0 kg CO2e/kg) vs. low-impact (lentils, 0.9 kg CO2e/kg) foods. Emission factors from Poore & Nemecek (2018), Science 360(6392). Changes: - data.py: add get_food_production_equivalent(), get_beef_equivalent(), get_lentils_equivalent() methods - components.py: add Food Production Equivalents UI section - carbonboard.py, carbonboard_on_api.py: wire up new callbacks

Thanks! Let me know if anything needs adjusting — happy to iterate on the emission factor sources or dashboard layout. |

Summary
Adds a "Food Production Equivalents" section to the carbonboard visualization, showing users how their compute emissions compare to the CO2 emitted by producing food. Displays a beef vs. lentils comparison — a 30x difference in emissions per kg that makes the climate impact of food choices tangible.
