Inserter filter slots are interactible

[protocol_1903]

TL;DR

Clicking an inserter filter slot while filtering (`Use filters`) is disabled should enable filtering and set a filter.

What?

Currently, clicking on the inserter filter slots does nothing when `Use filters` is off, because the filter slots are non-interactable. I would like to be able to click on them when `Use filters` is off and have it automatically turn on.

Alternatively, remove the `Use filters` selection entirely, and default inserters to blacklist. Then, the player can manually select a filter much faster.

Why?

It doesn't make sense to not have those slots interactable. At the very least players should be able to add filters, possibly change it from whitelist to blacklist, then enable filtering.

You can enable filters and drag the item you want onto the filter

The request is to not have to enable filtering before dragging the item into the filter
