Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When a user has a lot of tables in QDB, the UI becomes hard to navigate, since it takes time to scroll and find the table of interest.

Describe the solution you'd like
It would be nice if there could be a folder-like structure to the tables.
(as an addition it would be cool if permission can then be managed on per folder basis, as well as per table - related https://github.com/questdb/questdb/issues/996)

Describe alternatives you've considered
None really, besides adding prefixed to table names in order to organize.

Additional context
None.

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the table-navigation UI in the QuestDB Web Console and clarify the folder model, table organization behavior, and whether per-folder permissions are in scope; done should mean users can organize and find tables through folders without relying on prefixed names.
