Expand all in JSON view should be brought back

When in JSON view, we can previously expand all properties inside a document node by using CTRL+LEFT CLICK (or ALT+LEFT CLICK, i've forgotten). This feature was removed within the last year.

    An expand all option for all view types was released last year. Here is our documentation to help you find the option: https://www.mongodb.com/docs/compass/documents/view/#expand-embedded-objects-and-arrays

    This is especially critical when you have deep data structures with multiple elements. Clicking on each and every (sub)level is tedious, annoying and just not necessary. The feature exists for the YAML style display. Why not for JSON?
