Only select visible features in categorized or rule-based layers

[monticola2]

Describe the issue

I have a layer with categorized symbology, in my case on the column "species". If I deactivate the view of all but one species in the layer tree and try to select one point in the map, all the invisible points in the background close to the visible one get selected too. This is especially cumbersome if there are many invisible features because it's hard to find the one you actually wanted to select in the selection list. Also, this is a case where QGIS and QField differ. In QGIS (3.26) standard behaviour is that you can only select (or identify) visible features in a categorized layer.

Reproduction steps

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Create a layer with categorized symbology with points of different categories lying close together
2. Hide all categories except one
3. Select a visible point

Expected behavior

Only the visible point(s) of this layer get selected and show up in the selection view

Observed behavior

All invisible points of other categories of this layer are selected and shown in the selection overview, too.

Only "B" was activated in the layer tree, the other species are supposed to be invisible and I'd prefer them to be not selectable then.
