Material-table: Allow to add filter inputs in header

[Ubax]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I wanted to created a sticky filters, but it is not possible when the inputs are not in header. Right now it is only possible to have filters in table body

Describe the solution you'd like
The most user friendly solution would be adding a choice for a user to decide if they wanted filters to be placed as an additional row in table body or as inputs in header. It can be done by passing value 'header' into filtering prop.

Describe alternatives you've considered
The alternative is passing onFilterChanged to header, so while overriding header component one can use it to change filters values.

This has been requested a couple of times now (see links below), our team would also really like this feature.
At least I would want to be able to put the filterrow inside the header, so I can make it sticky. Making the header sticky already works great.
