Improve WP-Toolkit "Sort by" mechanim
At this moment, whenever a WP site is synced, the appearance of an instance at the top of the list is expected in any sort. This was done in order to make it easier to find an instance in the list.
This means the "Sort by" URL mechanism is not being respected, this change is considered a point of improvement to not cause damage to people relying on the "sort by" mechanism to distinguish their instances.

Add the import feature to the "plesk ext wp-toolkit --wp-cli" utility
There is an export option for the "plesk ext wp-toolkit --wp-cli":
plesk ext wp-toolkit --wp-cli -instance-id 2 -- export
Starting export process...
Writing to file /var/www/vhosts/example.com/httpdocs/futureinvestments.wordpress.2022-06-03.000.xml
Success: All done with export.
But the import feature require native "wp" utility to be installed, and fails via plesk utility with error:
WordPress Importer needs to be installed. Try 'wp plugin install wordpress-importer --activate'.Such option (import) in plesk ext wp-toolkit --wp-cli would improve usability

Add the possibility to customize the WordPress Toolkit Set to install WP in a custom directory
Add the possibility to customize the WordPress Toolkit Set to install WP in a custom directory (e.g., “/wp”) instead of installing it in the root folder (httpdocs)
Reason: The automatic WP installation performed via a WordPress Toolkit Set through a Hosting Plan would work fine if the customer’s current site is not built on WP or another php-based platform, but will fail and mess up their current site if their domain already contains a WP or php-based installation at the root level.

Change the way WordPress backups works in regards to the Hard quota of disk
During the WP backup process there is an intermediate plain SQL database and WP files created in the temporary folder:
ls -l /var/www/vhosts/example.com/.wp-toolkit/backups/351
total 20972
drwxr-xr-x 3 sysuser psacln 4096 Apr 28 16:16 files
-rw-r--r-- 1 sysuser psacln 21468967 Apr 28 16:16 sqldump.sql
Since this DB and Files folder belong to the system user of the Domain, such files consume the hard quota of the disk.
So the following situation can happen:
- The hard quota is 4GB
- The website size is 2GB
The customer thinks that there is enough space to create a WP zip backup

Remove WPTK instances name from the UI
When using the WPTK "copy data" feature, it also overwrites the name of the target instance with that of the source instance. This causes both target and source instances to have the same name, which causes confusion in other operations.
Is it possible to prevent the "copy data" feature from updating the target instance's name, or remove the instance names from the UI altogether?
