Added the ability to disable group similar time entries (#1054)

* Added the ability to disable group similar time entries

* Fix E2E test for Group similar time entries

* Simplify `TimeEntryGroupedTable` by replacing ternary with early return logic

* Refactor time entry grouping settings: rename storage key, move logic into a dedicated module

* Replace fixed `waitForTimeout` calls in E2E tests with element-based waits and assertions

* Run frontend linting and formatting for changes
