Add quick access to data streams

Is your feature request related to a problem?
All data streams backing indices are showing in the top of the "indices" view which is not very practical to use. I can hide them with the advanced configuration but I miss a way to access the whole data stream like there is for aliases.
Describe the solution you'd like
Add the data streams to the "aliases" view as this is some kind of aliases, or better just add a "data_stream" group for that.
It would be nice to also be able to hide every data_streams (or may be just elastic internal streams like .monitoring, fleet etc) with a quick check box instead of having to create custom patterns
Additional context
Related to this, I noticed that the custom patterns for indices apply in an unexpected way for data_streams: If I exclude for example -.* to hide all data_streams (that should begin with .ds) and all elastic internal indices (begin with a dot), I still see the backing indices of my own data_streams because the indices filter seem to work on the data stream name instead of the backing indices name.
So for the example, with this hide filter and if I have a data_stream named "my-stream" for example, I would still see some .ds-my-stream-2024.02.XXXXX. If I add -my-stream to the filtering rules, then the backing indices all disappears.
Thank you for the suggestion. I will add this in the future release.
