All platforms - Desktop GUI: Enhanced filters in Branch Explorer

We are excited to introduce a powerful new feature in our Branch Explorer: Filters. These filters have been designed to streamline your workflow and enhance your user experience. Here's a breakdown of the key improvements and functionalities:

1. Date Filters Enhancement:

* The interface for changing date filters has been revamped for simplicity and ease of use.

* Users now can quickly select predefined date ranges such as last week, last 15 days, month, or 3 months.

* Additionally, users can still manually select a specific date or date range from the calendar.

2. Automated Last Time Ago Calculation:

* A significant improvement is the automatic calculation of the last time ago based on the latest changes in the repository. This feature prevents empty diagrams by ensuring accurate data representation, even if the history is not up to date.

3. Branch Filters:

* A new branch filter feature has been implemented to help users focus on specific branches without having a cluttered interface.

* Users can easily filter branches based on their working preferences, select specific branches, and save filter configurations.

4. User Filters:

* The user filter option simplifies the focus on individual work by highlighting the user's changes in orange.

* Changes from other users are displayed with reduced opacity, allowing users to concentrate on their tasks effectively.

5. Save Filters Functionality:

* Users can now save date, branch, and user filters for future use, making accessing frequently used filter settings convenient.

6. Other Filters:

* A new filter excludes already merged branches, enabling users to focus solely on pending work items.

* Related Branches Option: The related branches feature enhances diagram comprehension by including parent, children, and merged connected branches in the view.
