UI - User-Preset Assignment kinda fails + Improvement suggestion

the intention is to allow to select individual user presets, or basically something from a list.
the issue right now is that the mapping applies to the preset list by itself, we never store which presets are available or could be selected.
it is the same for plugin files.

so to make this work proper the idea is to simply allow the user to pick which presets to map from a list, perhaps with a fast “pick only factory” vs “pick only user” vs “let me freely choose” options, and then the selected presets become part of the mapping/addressing.

the main issue is when a pedalboard is loaded and the user has changed the presets in the mean time, some of those could have been deleted. sample applies to files.
we need a way to deal with that proper, and also consider the situation of the user wanting to always map ALL presets or files, independent of whatever the current ones available are. (more important for files, if someone wishes to always have all of them available and not needing to re-address the file list again).

we want to have something proper for this, which means taking into consideration some reasonable points of failure.
