allow overriding instance or part settings with entire profile #4328

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. When slicing multiple parts it is possible to override settings on a per part basis. My Idea is to set an entire Print profile for a part or instance.

Describe the solution you'd like in the Add Setting context menu has set print profile option.

Describe how it would work This option would apply all the settings from the selected print profile to the part in question. this would massively speed up printing different parts with different layer heights or other settings that are interdependent. For example you could print 2 pieced tuned for cosmetics, as well as a part that requires more structural integrity.

Describe alternatives you've considered Splicing GCODE: There are tools to splice GCode together post slicing. Printing parts one after another.
