Add ability to merge target lists from mass action menu in list view.

Expected Behavior

Show Merge in mass action menu in target lists list view.

Eg: in list view for contacts, there is merge action when multiple contacts are selected.

Actual Behavior

For target lists, mass action allows only "mass update", "export" and "delete" actions.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Go to target lists
  2. select two or more target lists in list view
  3. open "mass action" action menu

If you need a workaround, I would try to do it from the database.

You can also go in this thread and nudge @amariussi to finally contribute that code 😉

About your suggestion, one thing that needs to be considered is how the merge will occur:

Hi, I think that adding targets from list A to target list B would be fine. If you need new target list (C), you can simply create it, than add targets from lists D, F, G one by one if needed...
