Replace view filter with entity reference
Problem/Motivation
There is a new view filter created in the this core patch (https://www.drupal.org/files/issues/2021-12-02/2429699-453-9.3.x.patch) which lets all entity reference field using entity dropdown or autocomplete instead of numeric textfield as view filter. The target_id field in this module is using numeric as view filter by default. The similar functionality should be applied in this module.
Steps to reproduce
1, Create an entity hierarchy field in specific content type.
2, Create view for this content type with exposed view filter on that entity hierarchy field target_id.
3, The view filter for this field shows as a text field.
Proposed resolution
Replace plugin for target_id field in function entity_hierarchy_field_views_data()
