Grouping of AD projects as a quick start / filter

With a grouping of certain AD projects to a topic / filter, a quick access can be made for different analyzes on recurring AD projects. The grouping based on a filter criterion (name) provides an improved overview in the Explore View, especially for a large number of AD projects.
The grouping based on a filter can be done in a similar way to the IDz Remote Systems View. The filter name is presented in a tree table view at the top level and the AD projects that have been added in sub-nodes below.
A filter can be added to the Explore projects View using the context menu. When selected, the filter name is specified in a dialog and the AD projects selected which are to be added.
If projects have already been selected in the Explore View AD and then the "Add filter" action has been carried out, the selection is accepted and only the filter name has to be specified.
Not only the creation of a filter must be available as an action, but also changing and deleting. When changing, an identical dialog should appear as when creating, with the difference that the filter name is displayed and can be overwritten. The selection of the contained AD projects should be deselected and new AD projects selected via the checkbox. Deleting a filter should mean that the filter disappears from the view of the explore project view and the AD projects contained can be seen again in the overall context. With the help of a drag and drop principle, it should be possible to influence the sorting so that filter groups, which are required very often, are at the top.

The filter groups should be displayed in the filter information for the different analyzes in the AD Project list, so that quick navigation and storage of the analysis with the filter is also possible there.
