Update function for merge features

[ThomasS]

According to article CS 263061 (https://support.ptc.com/apps/case_logger_viewer/auth/ssl/case=16208543) it only possible to update a merge feature by edit the definition, change update type to "Automatic", exit definition, regenerate and then set it back to "Manual".

This is extremely uncomfortable and time consuming, there should be an update function in right mouse menu.
