Create highlighting groups #190

Different types of log files usually require different highlighting patterns.

It would be nice if pattern groups could be created for different types of log files, which would group all patterns for the given log file type.
When opening a file, a highlighting group could then be selected (e.g. from the menu).

This is similar to the "highlighting groups" feature in LogExpert (which is only available for Windows though, not for Linux).

Highlighters UI has been reworked to allow several highlighting groups. Current group can be selected using context menu. Can be tested in builds >= 20.9.0.658.

Export/import for #173 is coming next

Reworked UI for better experience in 20.9.0.665. UX design is hard.

Based on issues #207 and #209 it seems to me that selecting active highlighters set from context menu is not very intuitive. Maybe some combobox in UI will be easier to notice.

Added a menu in main menu to select current group. Should land in 20.10.0.748. Hopefully this fixes this feature visibility issues.
