Closes #9191

This PR introduce options to choose groups from library during import of the entry(s).

  • Default group will be active group (opened by user).
  • On selecting the library, last selected group will be shown first (from the list).
  • Groups are alphabetically sorted

Potential future work (needs to create ticket, not in this PR):
Add option to create simple group from same importDialog (sometimes user may found articles that needs to be deal in seperate group).

Steps to test

  1. Create a new bib file
  2. Open the groups pane
  3. Add new group "test" (using context menu)
  4. Open web search (View menu)
  5. Select "DBLP"
  6. Search for "Using static analysis to find bugs"
  7. Choose groups from available options
