Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

A customer wasn't aware that the Checklist component could be used to select multiple list items.

Describe the solution you'd like

Rename the component to "Multi-select," implying the component's functionality and not a specific use case.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Alternatively, we can consider other names, e.g. "Checkbox group" - this is how Retool names it.

Additional

Update the component icon to the one attached below to better align with other components.

checkbox group

@volodymyr-melnykc I would be in favor of checkbox group, because multi-select is a generic term we use to also describe taglist.

@Skaiir Okay, makes sense. Let's name it "Checkbox group".
The only downside is that the name is long and won't fit in one line.

We also have a Radio component that functionally makes sense only when there is more than one item. So I suggest unifying naming and calling it "Radio group".

Wdyt?
