Offer different layout themes in dynatable as well as a theme editor

Offer several layout themes in dynatables, as is the case in views. Also offer a theme editor to meet the need for consistency and customisation in Canvas.

    The current dynatables, in particular if used in a canvas report, are currently far off from usable for actual reports. Taking a look at the attached examples (same report - 1x paste view, 1x dynatable) the key issues are:

    • column elements can't be changed in their sorting

    • column (headers) can't be adjusted (width, font, wrapping...)

    • column headers are not fixed

    • numbers are left aligned (why?)

    • number formats can't either be changed directly nor are formats taken into consideration, which are stored in the database (in the paste view, they are completely pulled from the database)

    • the overall format of the table can't be adjusted (fonts, margins/ paddings, colors...)

    • lists can't be used for quick and reusable layouts

    The above points are cruicial for a productive use. Without them, there is no use case

    Further improvements:

    • Control 0 supression through user

    • Expand/ collapse levels at once (not only single items)

    • conditional writeback function (overall, we are talking about planning applications!)

    • Calculations (-> lists)

    • Actions (buttons) to run jobs or jump to another report
