[Question] a correct way to interact with GUI layouts and filters from CLI #406

Description

@wwoskie

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I'm always frustrated when it comes to applying layouts to a sample. For example, if you have a lot of samples that have to be processed in the same manner with preconfigured filters/layouts etc and want to apply identical layouts/filters on all of them before opening GUI.

Describe the solution you'd like
A clear and explicit way to setup layout and filters programmatically

Describe alternatives you've considered
I examined sqlite db structure myself and found that it is possible to patch data that is uploaded to GUI already by messing with variant_header and viewersetup tables. However, this doesnt feel right and i guess it would be better to get an actual solution for this problem as it is intended by developers
