[Request]: Show progress on import operation

Tell us the problem or your need

When importing a bottle as a full configuration, it can take a while depending on how large it is. Currently in the GUI there is only a small notification letting the user know the import is happening and when it completes.

Describe the solution you'd like

The same loading element used when exporting the configuration should also be used when importing one:

2022-08-01_06-29

Before:

2022-08-01_06-34

After:

2022-08-01_06-34-2

I also think this is a needed enhancement - I am importing two prefixes with a total size of ~150 gb, and I did not realize they would be copied. At least if there were some kind of progress indication I would be able to tell what's going on.

I would like to move them instead of copying but may break other managers

I've noticed since opening this issue there is actually a notification for importing, but you need to be in an existing bottle to see it. If you sit at the import window like I did, it won't be there.
