[Products] Create new product inline, directly in the products list

[audez]

What is the need / problem?

Each time you want to create new products, you either:

• Click "New product +", go through the "products/new" page, edit all fields, click save, wait for the products list page to reload. Do it again.
• Clone (duplicate) a product several times, edit the fields, click Save. But then you have to edit each product individually to - at least - edit the description (could be resolved by [Products] Edit description inline, directly from the products list #264)

This makes the process of product creation long and cumbersome, especially when there are a lot of products to be created.

Potential solutions that will solve the problem

Allowing product creation inline, in the same way that it's already done for variants.

Clicking "New product +" would create a new line in the product list, instead of opening a new page. Clicking several times "New product" would create more product lines.
You could edit several products fields in once, and save only one time for all products (same as for the variants).

It would save a tremendous amount of time and be a smoother operation. Also, remaining on the same page - thus having the fields at the same place when you create products and see them - is easier to grasp.

Additional context

Some users complain that it's very long to create products. We advise them to use the spreadsheet for bulk import, but it also takes time to understand the spreadsheet columns and have a file ready for import without errors.
It would be great to have a fast and easy way to create products from the interface.
This + #264 and #266 could help fasten and ease the process.

Is Papercut or feature candidate?
