Bookmarks should have visible links to visuals

Bookmarks can interact in complex ways with visuals. Currently you cannot directly see what a bookmark does. You have to click between the bookmarks and try to spot the changes on the report.

This works poorly in these scenarios:
- You have a hidden visual filtering the report. You might see the visuals change, but won't know why.
- You have many bookmarks and it takes a while to check what each one does.
- You have page-level or visual-level filters that are not part of a bookmark. When you next click the bookmark, your filters will be removed and you may not notice.

I propose that we should see a mapping of bookmarks to visuals. This could work similarly to the Query Dependencies view in the Query Editor.
