Description
Improvement to #336.
Focusing on a component in the dependency graph can result in huge amounts of data being sent from the backend to pre-expand a graph, because in big nested graphs the same components can appear multiple times and the current approach of focusing on components includes every duplicate component in its response.
With this PR, the needed components for pre-expanding a graph are being de-duplicated before being sent as a response to the frontend, resulting in a huge reduction of sent data (e.g. ~50MB => ~60KB).
