User story
As a PRTG user, I want the option to add a link to an existing device to another place in the tree.
Details of user story
In a large device tree, it will be handy to have a device appear a second time, at another place in the tree. The only way to implement this right now will be duplicating the device, with the additional payload of querying the same device a second time.
The new function would be the nice little sister of the already existing Clone function, with a tiny little dialog asking only for the new home of the link in the device tree.
Acceptance criteria
- Add a new menu item "Link..." in the device context menu, may be right near the "Clone..." command.
- After clicking the new menu command, display a dialog similar to the Clone dialog, but showing only the tree for selecting the destination place for the link.
- Any editing work with the link would be applied to the target object of the link only, because the link is just a - hmmm - link and not an actual object by itself.
- Following this concept, there could be more than one link to the same target device.
