Allow removal of dependencies from the dependencies selection UI

[aloussase]

Users might misclic or change their mind about adding a dependency. Having to close the dialog in order to remove the dependency is unnecessary extra work.

This makes it so that the selected dependencies list is shown inside the dialog in a non-obstrusive way so that users can see what they've chosen so far and potentially remove them.

Hello,

first of all, thanks for this PR! We talked about this in our meeting and we agree that the current behavior of the list is not optimal.

We looked at your design in your video, and while it improves things, we'd like to propose something:

what about, instead of the green bubbles showing up on the top when you select a dependency, the dependency would stay in the list but get a different colored background. That way the user would see all selected dependencies (because they are colored), is able to de-select them by clicking on them again and there's no problem with scrolling when a lot of dependencies are selected.

That's essentially the same behavior as multi-select lists in operating systems and a lot of UIs: Ctrl+Click a deselected entry to select it and the background color indicates that it's selected. Ctrl+Click it again while selected deselects it, restoring the original color.

We think that this would work here, too.

Would you be willing to implement that idea?

Hello @mhalbritter ,

Yes I agree with the new proposed design. I just did as I did because I did not know if you'd like any changes to the list.

I can work on this new design :)

Thanks
