================================================
This feature adds a new filter entry "Multiple Filters" in the combobox of the filter.
This enables to define a "Multiple Filter" based on the aggregation of individual filters. So it basically provides for a user defined filter based on constraint types.
This "Multiple Filter" defaults to "All Constraints", and can be defined using the button "..." next to the filter combobox.
The "Multiple Filter" works on the list of constraints, as any other filter, limiting the elements shown in the list to match the multi filter definition.
The "Multiple Filter" interacts with the visibility options as any other filter. This is, in visibility non-tracking mode, it does not change the visibility. The Buttons "Hide Listed" and
"Show Listed" can be operated in this mode as any other filter.
In visibility tracking-mode, it will adapt the visibility of the constraints in the 3D view to the "Multi Filter" definition (exactly as it would to any other filter with its own definition).

What?
Showing/hidding a large amount of constraints is very time consuming
Why?
Because SketchObject Constraints property was being set for each individual constraint
Solution is to use the new setVirtualSpace overload taking a list or a tuple, so that all the
constraints are set in a single operation.
In a Debug system with the test of the forum the time taken by the operation is reduced
from 7 minutes to around 2-3 seconds.
=====================================
Rectangular Array gets a snap mode every 10 degrees when pressing CTRL (for consistency with Multiline arc, which also snaps using CTRL).

===================================================
Updates the visibility to the filter selection on the moment of checking the "track filter selection" checkbox.
======================================================================================
Hiden constraint icons should not be grouped into combined icons. This may also improve selection of combined (stacked) icons.
fixes#4590
=======================================================================
Add new option so that the 3D view constraint visibility track the constraint widget filter selection.
It maintains internally two mutually exclusive virtual spaces and the ability to select one as visible (the other remaining hiden).
===========================================
- Remove "Normal" as it did exactly the same as "All".
- Add "Geometric" to filter only Geometric (non datum) constraints
- Add all individual constraint types to filter.

LGTM complains about using continue statements inside a loop
whose condition is always false. In addition, the C++ core guidelines
recommend against using the do...while construct, and in this case it
was really serving as a goto, just hiding the actual goto keyword.
This commit replaces the loop and continue structure with simple
conditionals.
