[Feat] Dynamic data parameters automatically refresh the relevant dynamic filters

[petar-qb]

Description

This PR enables the automatic refreshing of the relevant dynamic filters and their targets when the data_frame parameter is changed.

Currently (on the main branch) our dynamic filters can only be updated when the page is refreshed.
With this change, dynamic filters will be updated even if the "relevant" dynamic data parameter changes.

So from the implementation point of view we extend Parameter.targets with dynamic filters linked to the same figure.
Also, we include dynamic filter targets to ensure that the new filter options are correctly calculated. This also ensures that the dynamic filter target is updated which is necessary if the filter value dynamically changes.

Looks great from a docs perspective, but I won't approve as there isn't any technical review from me. Thanks for keeping the docs updated though 🏆

Really nice work! The whole flow is getting pretty confusing now 😅 data_frame parameter can affect a figure, which affects data loading, which affects a filter, which affects target figures. Hopefully at some point we can simplify this whole scheme so it's much more linear. But for now this is great and should work well in practice even if it's kind of convoluted.

I suggested one possible simplification. I wonder if we should add an example to the docs also - let's discuss briefly in our 1-1.

Was not going to review, but wanted to understand what this is about. Could we ensure to have a bit better PR description for PRs that do not change obvious things?
