* NIFI-14777 Restore capability from NiFi 1.x to view upstream/downstream
connections. View connections > upstream/downstream is available in the context
menu from a variety of components: input/output ports, processors, process
groups, remote process groups and funnels.
* NIFI-14777 update arrow direction on upstream/downstream context menu items
* fix 1: remove <button> in favor of <a>
* make current process group non-navigable
* NIFI-14777 refactor PG ID/name selection to include possible peer PG in the
parent group to support port-to-port connection in sibling PGs
Update table formatting with fixed header and scrollable
* NIFI-14777 refactored component-connections-dialog.copmonent.spec.ts to match
current state of upstream/downstream dialog functionality; original was from a
older implementation
* NIFI-14777 updated functionality in dialog to remove the clickable feature of
remote port components
* NIFI-14777 fine tune presentation format of text in table
* NIFI-14777 updated link for remote process group vs. process group
* NIFI-14777 Added functionality for context referring to the current process
group, e.g. right-click on empty space on canvas, including test specs
* NIFI-14777 removed extra whitespace before link text
* NIFI-14777 make dialog table columns sortable including test spec
* NIFI-14777 implemented suggestion to re-use existing component-context widget
* NIFI-14777 update to handle permissions properly
* NIFI-14777 updated a couple UI display/formatting options
This closes #11582

> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0, 2.11.0
> Reporter: Mark Bean
> Assignee: Mark Bean

> In Apache NiFi 1.x, components had a context menu item (right click), "View
> connections" with two options: "Upstream" and "Downstream". This was a useful
> way to track the origin and destination of incoming and outgoing connections.
> It is useful when the origin or destination is a distance away on the graph,
> and is especially useful when the component in question is an input or output
> port. Since upstream connections to an input port or downstream connections
> to an output port are not visible within the current Process Group, there is
> literally no means to see what connections are attached to this port without
> the "View connections" menu item.
> This feature should be restored in 2.x.
