Description
### Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
The construction UI has not been updated since ages, yet the crafting UI has gotten a lot of features which the construction UI would benefit from.
### Solution you would like.
1. First of all, consistency. The windows should look roughly the same and use tabs for readability and general structure.
1.1 We would not necessarily need the nested since we do not have 7 variants of the same construction except for maybe painted walls.
2. Proficiencies. Construction would benefit from these greatly.
3. Advanced searching (e.g by ingredient or needed tool quality)
4. And more

Research direction
The issue does not name files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the construction UI and comparing it with the crafting UI, then clarify which changes are in scope among consistent tabs, proficiencies, and advanced searching. Done should be defined as an agreed construction UI overhaul with the selected features implemented.
