## Describe the Feature

Problem: I'd like to see all the stacks associated for a specific account

Solution: Filter spacelift stacks based on account directories like `folder:qa`, `folder:dev`, etc

For instance, my `eks` component is deployed in `auto`, `corp`, `dev`, `qa`, `staging`, and `prod` in both `use2` and `usw2` regions. The spacelift stacks for eks all have a label on it like this `component/eks` so I can search for this label and I can see all the `eks` components. Success!

However, there isn't a stage specific label. If I wanted to search for all spacelift stacks for the `qa` account, I could search `qa` but this would not be helpful since the string is too short and there is no way to have the cardinality that I want.

I suggest we have a new folder called `stage` and in it we can have the accounts that we desire.

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the existing Spacelift stack-label filtering and account-directory handling, then determine how a distinct stage/account filter should represent values such as qa and dev. Done means users can select those accounts without relying on short-string searches.
