Description
-------

This patch fixes some UI related bugs and improves the usability especially for new / casual users like myself by removing some clutter and bringing in some consistency.

I detail it modifies:

* Create filter layer / Filter Mask
  This fixes the treeview, slightly changes the layout and adds a scrollarea
  to be usable on smaller screens, changes "Name" label to "Layer Name" to be
  consistent with the "create fill layer" and "create file layer" widgets,
  disables the preset buttons when the filter has no configuration
  
* Create fill layer
  Fix resizing of the pattern widget, and removes unnecessary pattern label
  
* Remove unnecessary "Tag:" label and set it as the tooltip in TagChooserWidget.
  By default the entry says "All presets", so the user already knows what it does.
  This also adds to consistency with most other dropdowns in the interface
  
* Removed the statustip from the "Duplicate Layer or Mask" button in the layer docker.
  This is the only button in krita that has it set and it's annoying to see the statusbar
  flash each time you hover over that one button. Also the info is already in the tooltip.


Kind regards,
Moritz
