Improve several parts of the variant tags feature

- Update slide view variants tooltip immediately upon tag/group rename.
- Fix flicker upon first showing of the filtering dialog.
- Word wrap the "empty variants" hint text.
- Preserve groups addition order (in inspector and filter dialog).
- Use predefined colors for newly created groups.
- Add a border around tags in the timeline rows.
- Other minor relevant tweaks.
