Misnomer: Tenants referred to as clients #4139

Production 3 offers the possibility of providing several highly separate accesses to an instance, so that the projects of one are not visible to the other. So far, these have been referred to as clients (Germ. Klient, Kunde). In the context of computer systems, this use of that term is at least unusual, since a client here typically refers to a program that interacts with a server (web browser, WebDAV client, etc.)

The correct technical term for the functionality in question is multitenancy (Germ. Mandantenfähigkeit), the individual accesses are called tenant(s).

Goal: This should be renamed to use the common term.
