Annotated screenshot of tab groups in FF

Since I found out about tab groups in Firefox, I absolutely love them for their
effect on productivity.  I would really love to see tab groups in Dolphin as
well, since that is my application with the second-most tabs.

If you don't know about tab groups, these are the important traits:

- Tabs can be assembled into groups, by a number of GUI methods (context menu
on the tab, dragging tabs into an existing group, dragging a tab onto another
tab and holding it there for some time).
- Tab groups are short-lived: once a tab group is no longer meaningful, such as
when its last tab is closed, all information about it is lost.
- When a tab group is created, the user may choose a name for it, and a color
(few choices, only a limited palette) is assigned.
- Tab groups are denoted by a special "group marker tab", which is colored, and
all tabs of this group share this color. (see screenshot)
- Most importantly, tab groups can be collapsed and expanded. A collapsed tab
group consists of only the tab group marker, and thus takes up very little
space in the tab bar.
- Of course, ideally tabs are also saved and restored when closing / restarting
the application.

I know about the possibility to save tabs into a bookmark folder, but that does
not solve the problem of always too limited screen space.
