3515668 - SAC - Application.getFileDataSource(modelID).setDimensionFilterWithHierarchy() doesnt work for dimension without hierarchy

The issue arises when using the setDimensionFilterWithHierarchy function, which requires a hierarchy parameter.

For dimensions without a hierarchy, setting the parameter to "" doesn't update the filter. The user intends to apply a dimension property as a filter, but since properties can't have a hierarchy, this approach fails.

Wrong configuration

For the setDimensionFilterWithHierarchy API, the hierarchy parameter is mandatory. If there's no hierarchy in the dimensions, use Alias.FlatHierarchy for the parameter.
