ElementFilter is either an ElementParameterFilter or an ElementLogicalFilter
representing a Boolean combination of ElementParameterFilters. In addition, we check that
each ElementParameterFilter satisfies the following conditions:
Its array of FilterRules is not empty and contains:
- Any number of FilterRules of type FilterValueRule, FilterInverseRule, and SharedParameterApplicableRule or
- Exactly one FilterCategoryRule containing only one category from categories stored by this ParameterFilterElement or
- Exactly two rules: the first one is a FilterCategoryRule containing only one category from categories stored by this ParameterFilterElement and the second one is a FilterRule of type FilterValueRule, FilterInverseRule, or SharedParameterApplicableRule.
